Isomerisation of allylic alcohols in water mediated catalytically by water soluble metal complexes is an
elegant synthetic procedure for obtaining carbonyl compounds in a completely atom-economical ecobenign
process with several useful applications in natural-product synthesis and in bulk chemical processes.
This review is targeted to provide a general view of the goals obtained in isomerisation catalysis
in water. Complexes that catalyze the isomerization of allylic alcohols in water, together with ligands and
reaction conditions are compared with respect to yield, turnovers, rate and selectivity. A general overview
of the mechanisms proposed for the isomerisation of allylic alcohols is also presented. Crystal structures
and selected bond lengths are presented for the most representative catalytically active metal
complexes.
