Abstract

Di-n-butylallyltin chloride readily adds to ketones and aldehydes to form organotin alkoxides of the type: n-Bu 2 ClSnOCR′R (CH 2 CHCH 2 ). In some cases this reaction is reversible. Thus, under suitable conditions, alkoxides of the type: n-Bu 2 XSnOCMeR(CH 2 CHCH 2 ) (X  n-Bu, Cl; R  Me, i-Pr, i-Bu, t-Bu), obtained by transalkoxylation reactions, furnish ketones and mixed allyltins, n-Bu 2 YSn-(CH 2 CHCH 2 ) (Y  n-Bu, CH 2 CHCH 2 , ...
