Abstract

Reaction of trialkylboranes with vinyllithium gives non-isolable lithium trialkylvinylborates which react with oxirane and methyloxirane affording 1, 4-and 2, 5-alkanediols, respectively. Treatment of trialkylboranes with vinylmagnesium bromide produces bromomagnesium trialkylvinylborates which analogously afford alkanediols. Successive treatment of the borates with aqueous alkali and iodine provides 1-alkenes.
