Diastereoselective Synthesis of Open-Chain Secondary Alkyllithium Compounds and Trapping Reactions with Electrophiles

A practical stereoselective iodide–lithium exchange was used in the first general preparation of functionalized stereodefined acyclic secondary nonstabilized lithium reagents from the corresponding secondary alkyl iodides. These lithium reagents react with various electrophiles including carbon elec...

Summary:A practical stereoselective iodide–lithium exchange was used in the first general preparation of functionalized stereodefined acyclic secondary nonstabilized lithium reagents from the corresponding secondary alkyl iodides. These lithium reagents react with various electrophiles including carbon electrophiles with high retention of configuration. Kinetic data on the configurational stability of these acyclic alkyllithium reagents are given. This methodology offers a new entry to chiral synthons for the stereoselective synthesis of open‐chain molecules. Stereocontrol in acyclic systems: A practical stereoretentive iodine–lithium exchange served in the first general preparation of functionalized stereodefined acyclic secondary nonstabilized lithium reagents from the corresponding diastereomerically pure syn and anti alkyl iodides. Quenching with a range of electrophiles provides stereospecific access to both syn and anti acyclic alkyl derivatives with excellent diastereoselectivities (up to d.r.=97:3).
