ω-Alkenyl-α-Methoxy-Benzyllithiums : Original Synthesis and Reactivity

1-Methoxy-benzyllithiums bearing suitably positioned C,C double bonds possess a high propensity to produce a five or a six membered cycle by carbocyclisation reaction. The reaction proceeds completely stereoselectively and produces a five membered cycle possessing the cis-stereochemistry between the...

Summary:1-Methoxy-benzyllithiums bearing suitably positioned C,C double bonds possess a high propensity to produce a five or a six membered cycle by carbocyclisation reaction. The reaction proceeds completely stereoselectively and produces a five membered cycle possessing the cis-stereochemistry between the methoxy and the adjacent methyl group. © 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
