Abstract

A test based on kinetic resolution was applied to probe the configurational stability of various α‐substituted benzyllithium compounds 1. It was found that the trimethylsilyl‐ (1b), phenylsulfenyl‐ (1c), and the phenylselenyl‐substituted (1d) benzyllithium compounds enantiomerized more rapidly than they added to the chiral aldehyde 6. In contrast, the carbamoyloxy‐ (1e), (16), and the phenylsulfonyl‐substituted (1g) benzyllithium compounds were found to be configurationally stable on the time scale set by their addition to the aldehyde 6.

## Abstract Benzyllithium compounds carrying a benzylthio substituent (6), a benzylseleno substituent (8), and an isopropyl(methyl)amino substituent (14) have been generated. Racemization barriers have been determined in THF by monitoring the coalescence of signals of diastereotopic groups in the ^

## Abstract α‐Methylbenzyllithium (6) should possess either central or planar chirality. The rate of enantiomerization of 6 at — 78^°^C was found to be faster than its addition to the amide 7, the ketone 8, or to the aldehyde 10, according to a test based on kinetic resolution.
