The conversion of allylic alcohols to saturated carbonyl compounds is a useful synthetic process and would conventionally require a two-step sequential oxidation and reduction reactions. A one-pot catalytic transformation (Scheme 1), equivalent to an internal redox process, is a conceptually attractive strategy. 1-3 Apart from maintaining total atom economy in the process, 4 it could also avoid the use of costly and/or toxic reagents, especially in the oxidation reactions. In this regard, a number of methods have been developed harnessing the ability of transition metal complexes to migrate double bonds. Such a migration in the case of an allylic alcohol would result in the formation of an enol (or enolate) intermediate which on tautomerization can afford the saturated carbonyl compound. 5
