Abstract

Substituted epichlorohydrins 3 or 6 are obtained from α-bromo or α-chlorocarbonyl compounds (1 or 4) and chloro or iodomethyllithium, respectively. Starting from α- bromocarbonyl compounds 1 or acyclic α-chloro ketones the reaction takes place with total diastereoselectivity. Treatment of epichlorohydrins 3 or 6 with lithium iodide affords the same substituted allyl alcohols 7 in a regioselective manner. A mechanism to explain this ...
