Abstract

Abstract: The solvolysis of 9-homocubyl triflate-9-d (8-9-4, the deamination of 9- homocubylammonium chloride-9-d (15-9-4, and most likely also the fluorodeiodination of 9- homocubyl iodide-9-d (13-9-6) take place in a highly stereoselective manner. Both deamination and solvolysis products have the deuterium label scrambled only over one face of the homocubyl cage (syn to the substituent) and are formed with retention at C (9). In ...
