32. Synthesis of allyl ether 1a:To a stirred solution of the corresponding Baylis-Hillman acetate (500 mg, 2 mmol) in THF (3 mL) was added DABCO (452 mg, 4 mmol) and stirred for 10 min at rt. To the reaction mixture was added allyl alcohol (1.5 mL) and heated to 50-60°C for 3 days. After usual workup process and column chromatographic purification process (hexane/ether, 30:1) we could obtain the desired compound 1a in 71% isolated yield (350 mg). Other compounds 1b and 1c were synthesized by using the same experimental procedure. The spectroscopic data of prepared compounds are listed below.
