β¦ Synopsis
The relanve reactivrtles of ortho-andpara-substituted benzaldehydes wrth the a5butylboron enolate of prnacolone have very dzfferent subsrrtuent dependences ortho subsmmts give large rate enhancements wrth electronreleasmg substituents. wlule para subsntuents gave extremely small rate effects Since chelation is lnaccesstble to the boron enolate (which must also complex to the aldehyde). the orrgrn of the large ortho effects was inveshgated by

The E/Z ratios of the stilbenes 1 formed in the Wittig reaction of ortho-halo substituted benzyltriphenylphosphonium salts 2 and benzaldehydes 3 were determined. It was found that there is a co-operative effect of one ortho-halo group on each of the two reacting partners which increases Z-selectivit
