Polar allyl type organometallics as key intermediates in regio- and stereocontrolled reactions: conformational mobilities and preferences (1993)

Schlosser, Manfred, Desponds, Olivier, Lehmann, Ruth, Moret, Etienne, Rauchschwalbe, Guenter

A review with 64 refs., including discussion of the structural flexibility of organometallic species, the stereochem. of 2-alkenylmetal compds., and the origin of the endo effect. [on SciFinder (R)]

2-Methylpentadienyl- and 2,4-dimethylpentadienylpotassium: first examples of U-shaped, though open-chain, organometallics (1978)

Schlosser, Manfred, Rauchschwalbe, Guenter

The U-shaped structures of the title compds. I (R = H, Me) were elucidated by the dimethoxyboration-oxidn. procedure to II (R = H, R1 = Me; R = Me, R1 = H, and R = R1 = Me). [on SciFinder (R)]

Gezielte Hydroxylierung von Allylstellungen (1975)

Rauchschwalbe, Guenter, Schlosser, Manfred

Treatment of a-pinene with Me3COK and BuLi gave intermediate I which was oxidized with H2O2 to give 42% (1S,5R)-myrtenol (II, X = OH) and .apprx.1% (1R,3R,5S)-trans-pinocarveol (III, X = OH)....
