Allylation and propargylation of aldehydes mediated by in situ generated zinc from the redox couple of Al and ZnCl 2 in 2N HCl

A simple one pot allylation and propargylation of aldehydes mediated by zinc(0), which is in situ generated from the redox couple of Al and ZnCl 2 in 2N HCl, is demonstrated to afford the corresponding homoallyl and homopropargyl alcohols with excellent yields.
