Abstract
The reaction between allylstannanes and α,β-unsaturated acyliron complexes has been investigated. Contrary to the behavior of other α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, α,β-unsaturated acyliron complexes react with allylstannanes to produce predominately cyclopentane derivatives with a high degree of stereoselectivity. The initial cycloadducts contain acyliron and trialkylstannyl functionalities, which are readily converted to ester and alcohol groups, respectively, with complete retention of stereochemistry. Transition state models involving a synclinal orientation of reactants have been proposed to explain the observed stereochemistry. Studies of cyclization reactions of 5-hexenylstannanes have also been described. 1. Introduction 2.
