Abstract

Regio- and stereo-selective y-substitution of allylic nitro compounds with lithium dialkylcuprates provides a new synthesis for trisubstituted olefins. ... Substitution reactions of allylic substrates with organometallic reagents are important in organic synthesis and have been studied extensively. Allylic substrates containing oxygen or sulphur in the leaving group (OAc, 03SC6H4-p-Me, OR, OH, S02R) and allylic halides have commonly been used.' In ...
