Abstract

Preparation of 1,1-dimetalated-1-alkenes was realised via metalate rearrangements in the opening of lithiodihydrofuran 6 by reaction with dilithium stannyl-, silyl-, alkyl- and aryl(cyano)cuprates and quenching with electrophilic agents. Several hetero (E)- and (Z)-1,1-dimetalated alkene derivatives were so produced in good to high yields and total stereocontrol.

• When 1.1 equiv of I₂ was used as the trap, the reaction gave a mixture of the expected iodotin derivative (Z)-12 (9% yield), the unsubstituted vinyltin (51% yield) and the 1,1-ditin compound 15 (22% yield). It was interesting to note that when the reaction of the cuprate 8c with 6 was followed by an H₃O⁺ quench, the distannyl 15 was formed in less than 2% yield. Formation of a ditin compound was earlier reported during a stannylcupration followed by trappping with an electrophile other than proton, see:
