A new catalytic method for the synthesis of alpha-hydroxyallenes is described. Efficient S(N)2' substitution of propargylic dioxolanones has been achieved with a copper(I)/P(OBu)(3) catalyst using Grignard reagents as the nucleophiles. The reaction tolerates a wide variety of propargylic dioxolanones, the cor-responding primary and secondary alpha-hydroxyallenes are obtained in good to excellent yields and excellent diastereoseletivity.
