Allylation of N-heterocycles with allylic alcohols employing self-assembling palladium phosphane catalysts

Abstract
The first palladium catalyst system that allows the direct allylation of indoles with allylic alcohols as substrates with water being the only byproduct is presented. The application of self-assembing ligands based on complementary hydrogen bonding was the key to success.
