Resolution and asymmetric synthesis of ortho-substituted (benzaldehyde)tricarbonylchromium complexes

The amino−zinc−enolate cyclization allowed a new and straightforward route to polysubstituted pyrrolidines from simple starting materials. From this study, we have been able to determine, for the first time, the stereochemical influence of the substituents on the ring in the carbocyclization reaction. The diastereoselectivity thus obtained was explained by a chairlike amino−zinc−enolate transition state.

Are allenes formed from propargylic ethers through a syn or anti displacement

The allylzincation of vinylmetals is a very general reaction; whatever the nature of the vinyl organometallics, the reaction occurs with 1 equiv of substituted allylmagnesium bromide, if 1 equiv of zinc salt is present. This new synthetic approach leads to the creation of stereogenic secondary carbon centers with an excellent level of stereocontrol
