Abstract: | reaction: see text] The influence of lithium ions on the conjugate addition of the monoorganocuprate reagent, LiBuCuI], to a chiral crotonate has been investigated. The results show that iodotrimethylsilane (TMSI) is crucial for the asymmetric conjugate addition of the copper reagent, but only in THF or when 12-crown-4 is used. The reaction is thought not to involve any halosilane in any critical steps in the organocopper mechanisms conducted in Et(2)O. |
