THE OSMYLATION OF FLEXIBLE 3-SUBSTITUTED CYCLOPENTENES
Poli, Giovanni
, p. 7385 - 7388 (1989)
The osmylation of several 3-substituted cyclopentenes has been studied.A preference for OsO4 addition syn to an allylic CHR2 substituent is observed.By contrast, bulkier substituents of type CMeR2 give rise to a striking reversal of selectivity.These results are interpreted in terms of the stereodivergent nature of the two differently reactive envelope conformations.
