Abstract:
The allyl zincation of vinyllithium or Grignard reagents was studied computationally and compared to the allyl zincation of ethylene. The key step is a preorganization of the reagents via Zn-Br-Li (or Mg) coordination, which is also apparent in the transition structures. The experimentally observed diastereoselectivity when substituted (E)- or (Z) vinyllithium reagents are added to crotylzinc bromide may also be explained in terms of preferentially stabilized transition structures with cisoid allyl moieties.
