Part of the book series: Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry ((TOPICS,volume 32))

Abstract

Over the past 10 years, significant progress has been made in the field of metal-catalyzed allylic alkylation reactions. Intramolecular variants forming saturated heterocycles comprise a well-known class of reactions that are often utilized in the syntheses of biologically active natural products. Selected recent advances in this area between the years 2002 and 2012 and their applications toward total syntheses are reviewed herein.
