Organonickel complexes are distinctive in their nucleophilic reactivity from organometal complexes of the other group 10 elements. 1 By virtue of this characteristic, many efficient nickelcatalyzed or-promoted CC bond formation reactions have been developed. 2, 3 Among these, allylation of carbonyls and alkyl and allyl halides with π-allylnickels has proved to be particularly useful and has been utilized widely for the synthesis of natural and unnatural products. 4, 5 Unfortunately, however, this methodology requires a stoichiometric amount of nickel. Recently, a useful version of catalytic addition of π-allylnickel to aldehyde has been developed, which promotes the cyclization of ω-dienyl aldehydes to 2-[(E)-1-propenyl] cycloalkanols (eq 1). 6 2-Allylcycloalkanols may be obtained selectively by employing a stoichiometric amount of “Ni-H” complexes generated under sophisticated conditions (eq 1). 7Here, we disclose that Ni (acac) 2 (acac) acetylacetonato) in combination with triethylborane nicely catalyzes the homoallylation of benzaldehyde with 1, 3-dienes to provide 1-phenyl-4-pentenols 2 in excellent yields and with pronounced regio-and stereoselectivities (eq 2). For example, as exemplified in run 2,
