Prof. Bernhard Breit
•Ph.D. at University of Kaiserslautern in 1993•Post-doctoral studies with Trost at Standford•1999-2001 professor of organic chemistry at University of Heidelberg•Since 2001, holds a chair of organic chemistry at the University of Freiburg
His research interests include the developement and exploration of new concepts and methods for organic synthesis and homogeneous catalyst.
Background
Under certain conditions, transition metals produce branched allylic compounds (right)

Allenes in organic synthesis
Allenes are used in many ways in organic synthesis. These methods are often applied toward making a natural product. They are used as substrates in many well known transformations:
•Diels-Alder reaction
•Pausan-Khand cyclization

•The carboxylic acid may initiate the reaction through the formaton of the allyl-Rh intermediate.
•The nucleophilicity of the α carbon would be enhanced.
•CO2 can be eliminated as a traceless directing group.
Optimization of reaction conditions
Scope of regioselective synthesis of tertiary carbon centers
Scope of regioselective synthesis of quaternary carbon centers
Diallylation of acetone-1,3-dicarboxylic acid
Mechanistic studies
2 questions regarding this mechanism :
•Decarboxylation or allylation goes first ?
•Inner-sphere or outer-sphere mechanism ?

Conclusions
•They have developed a highly regioselective decarboxylative addition of β-ketoacids to allenesto give γ-δ-unsaturated ketones.
•Quaternary and tertiary carbons centers could be generated in high yield.
•A mild and atom economic method was developed.
•Milder conditions than the enolate allylation under basic conditions.
