Abstract

Intramolecular reactions of organolithium reagents with olefins have been extensively studied in organic synthesis. One representative reaction is the Wittig rearrangement1 of R- alkoxyorganolithium compounds, which provides a versatile method for the regio-and stereoselective CC bond formation along with the allylic transposition. Another topic is the intramolecular carbolithiation of olefins, 2 which allows regio-and stereoselective ...
