“…Under the optimized conditions, product 181 was isolated as a 30 : 1 : 0 mixture of diastereomers, and the major diastereomer was determined to be trans,cis-181 by nOe experiments. Considering the models previously proposed for the carbolithiation step [43,45], the authors could rationalize the stereochemical outcome of this reaction [49]. The optimized conditions for the sequential aminolithiation/carbolithiation cyclization were applied to the synthesis of several other allyl-and homoallylaminoalkenes (Scheme 10.60).…”
