The threo-selective reaction of allenic organometallic compounds with imines
Abstract
The reaction between the imines (2) and the allenic organometallic compounds (3) gives the threo adducts (4) with very high stereoselectivity, while the reaction with 9-but-2-enyl-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane gives the analogous erythro allylamines stereoselectively.
