Widening the usefulness of epoxides and aziridines in synthesis
Deprotonation of terminal epoxides and aziridines with organolithium/ diamine combinations or lithium amides allows the regio- and stereoselective formation of α-lithiated species. Judicious choice of reaction conditions allows these species to operate as nucleophiles, enolate equivalents, vinyl cat...
