The reaction of trialkylstannylmethyllithium with α,β-epoxy ketones and α-chloro ketones
The reactions of trialkylstannylmethyllithium with α,β-epoxy ketones afforded mainly cyclopropanols, while α-chloro ketones afforded allyl alcohols and/or cyclopropanols, in varying amounts depending upon the molar ratio of the reagent to the substrate.
