Mechanism and applications of lithium amide-induced asymmetric rearrangements of 4-substituted and 4,4-disubstituted cyclopentene oxides to cyclopentenols

The preparation and lithium amide-induced rearrangements of 1,2-dideuterated 4-substituted cyclopentene oxides 11 and 19 are described, providing insight into the deprotonation mechanisms operating in such systems. Highly enantioselective syntheses of 4-substituted cis-4-hydroxymethylcyclopent-2-en-...
