The transition metal-catalyzed directed site-selective C─H bond functionalization utilizing allyl alcohols as coupling partner has been an intriguing area of research and has made considerable advances during the past decade. Multifunctional coupling characteristics of the allyl alcohol in the regioselective C(sp2)-H functionalization using transition metal-catalysis produces alkyl, alkenyl, allyl, and annulated products. These reactions provide an effective synthetic tool to afford diverse functionalized scaffolds that are of interest in synthetic and medicinal sciences. This review covers the developments of directed site-selective C(sp2)-H functionalization with unactivated allyl alcohols as the coupling partner using the transition metal-catalysis till December, 2024.

Reduction of Alkynes to cis-Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Like alkenes, alkynes can be reduced to alkanes in the presence of transition metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd, or Ni. The reaction involves two sequential syn additions of hydrogen via a cis-alkene intermediate.
Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...

Electrophilic Addition to Alkynes: Halogenation
Halogenation is another class of electrophilic addition reactions where a halogen molecule gets added across a π bond. In alkynes, the presence of two π bonds allows for the addition of two equivalents of halogens (bromine or chlorine). The addition of the first halogen molecule forms a trans-dihaloalkene as the major product and the cis isomer as the minor product. Subsequent addition of the second equivalent yields the tetrahalide.
