Preparation of α-Heteroatom Substituted Allylic Alcohols by Reaction of (E)-α-Selanylvinylzirconiums or (E)-α-Trimethylsilylvinylzirconiums with Aldehydes
Abstract
Both (E)-α-selanylvinylzirconium and (E)-α-trimethylsilylvinylzirconium complexes undergo AgClO4-catalyzed reactions with aldehydes to give α-seleno- or α-trimethylsilyl-substituted allylic alcohols, respectively.
