o-Allyloxyanisoles are selectively and easily deallylated by treatment with sec- or tert-butyllithium at low temperature. The reaction is proposed to proceed through a tandem intermolecular carbolithiation-β;-elimination process, which can also be considered an SN2′ attack of the organolithium on the allyl ether.
