Abstract
Asymmetric [2,3]-Wittig rearrangements of allyl propargyl ethers in hexane were performed in the presence of s-butyllithium and (-)-α-isosparteine which is a C2-symmetric chiral ligand for the alkyllithium reagent. The reactions of (Z)-or (E)-allyl 3-trimethylsilylpropargyl ethers at -78℃ showed good diastereoselectivities (74-100%) and moderate enantioselectivities (29-71%). The absolute configurations of the rearrangement products were determined by the corresponding Mosher's esters. It was found that (-)-α -isosparteine induced (R) configuration at the hydroxy carbon and syn stereochemistry more favorably. The possible transition state is discussed.
