The preparation of enatiomerically enriched homoallylic alcohols through asymmetric addition of chiral allylic transfer reagents and allylating reagents with chiral catalysts to the carbonyl functionalities represents an important chemical transformation. Excellent progress has been made over past decade in the development and application of catalytic asymmetric allylic transfer reactions. In this account, our efforts for the various intermolecular allylic transfer reactions such as allylation, propargylation, allenylation, and dienylation utilizing accelerating strategy and sequential allylic transfer reactions to achieve multiple stereoselection mainly using transition metal catalysts are described.
