Abstract

Abstract The diastereomeric carbenoids 4 have been generated by diastereoselective (84: 16) exchange of the diastereotopic bromine atoms in the dibromo compound 3 for lithium at− 120 C. The implication of the observed diastereoselectivity for the Nozaki ring-expansion method is discussed.
