syn-Diastereoselective carbonyl allylation by 1- or 3-substituted prop-2-en-1-ols with tin(II) iodide and tetrabutylammonium iodide
Abstract
1-Substituted or 3-substituted prop-2-en-1-ols cause syn-diastereoselective carbonyl allylation with tin(II) iodide and tetrabutylammonium iodide via the formation of 3-substituted prop-2-enylpolyiodotins to produce syn-1,2-disubstituted but-3-en-1-ols.
