capillary column (Hewlett Packard), flameꢀionizing detector,
operating temperature of 50—170 °C, and helium as a carrier
gas). Mass spectra were measured on a Finnigan 4021 instruꢀ
ment (70 eV), the temperature of injector was 200 °C. Elemental
analysis was performed on a Carlo Erba model 1106 elemental
analyser. 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker
Avance 400 spectrometer (400.13 and 100.62 MHz, respectively),
using SiMe4 and CDCl3, respectively, as internal standards. The
product yields were determined by GLC using undecane or hexaꢀ
decane as internal standards.
Cycloalumination of Nꢀallylamines, N,Nꢀdiallylamines, and allyl
heptyl sulfide (general procedure). Allylic compound (1 mmol),
Cp2ZrCl2 (0.029 g, 0.1 mmol), hexane (3 mL), and Et3Al
(1 mmol, or 2 mmol in the case of N,Nꢀdiallylamines) were
sequentially placed under argon into a 50ꢀmL glass reactor
equipped with a magnetic stirrer and heated using a water bath
to 40 °C, and the mixture was stirred for 8 h at 40 °C.

Deuterolysis of aluminacyclopentanes (general procedure).
Hexane (5 mL) was added to the reaction mixture obtained by
the procedure described above, followed by a dropwise addition
of D2O (3 mL) with cooling of the reactor in an ice bath.
A precipitate that formed was filtered off using a paper filter.
The aqueous layer was extracted with diethyl ether, the extract
was combined with the organic layer, dried with anhydrous
CaCl2, and concentrated in vacuo. Individual compounds 1a—c
and 2—5 were isolated by distillation at reduced pressure.
