Although the [2,3]-Wittig and Wittig-Still rearrangements have long been known, their application in the generation of quaternary carbon centers in carbocyclic ring systems is sparse. Model studies utilizing this strategy and possible mechanisms are discussed herein. Unprecedented examples of an α-elimination pathway from stannylmethyl allyl ethers as a major undesired product in some Wittig-Still rearrangements are reported.
