Attempted Rearrangement of Cyclobutyl Anions to 3-Butenyl Anions: Endocyclic Ring Opening upon Reaction of 3,3-Diphenyl-1-vinylcyclobutyl Methyl Ether with Alkali Metals - via Anions or Radicals?
Maercker, Adalbert,Berkulin, Willi
, p. 185 - 192 (2007/10/02)
The reaction of the title compound 16 with lithium or sodium in THF yields mainly the open-chain E/Z isomeric trianions 3132 besides the expected cyclobutyl anion 10.The endocyclic ring opening takes place via the radical intermediate 28 primarily yiel
