On the origin of 1,5-induction in tin(IV) halide-promoted reactions of 4-alkoxyalk-2-enylstannanes with aldehydes
Abstract
A combination of experiment and theory has identified both the allyltin trichlorides 3 (R2 = Bn, H) as key intermediates in tin(IV) chloride-promoted reactions of allylstannanes 1 (R2 = Bn, H) and the transition structures that are involved in their reactions with aldehydes.
