(Methylthio)- and (tert-butylthio)allyllithium react irreversibly with 2-cyclopentenone by α- and γ-1,2-addition in THF at -78 deg C. (Phenylthio)- and (phenylseleno)allyllithium also react in this way but in addition display a small tendency to undergo α
HMPA-MEDIATED CONJUGATE ADDITION OF ALKYL- AND PHENYLTHIOALLYL ANIONS TO CYCLOPENTENONE

One equivalent of HMPA induces 1,4-addition of the title anions predominantly through the α-position to cyclopentenone in THF at -78 deg C.In THF alone irreversible addition takes place to give mixtures comprising largely α- and γ-1,2 products.
