Summary of main observation and conclusion A highly eficient palladium-catalyzed direct coupling of propargylic alcohols with organoboronic acids to synthesize tri-and tetra-substituted llenes has been developed under mild reaction conditions.Many useful functional groups are tolerated in this pro-cess with high to excellent yields.Preliminary biological studies showed that several tri-and tetra-substituted allenes exhibited potent anti-diabetic activi-ties.
