## Abstract Stereoselective synthesis is attracting more and more attention. Successful stereoselective syntheses require the availability of reactions of known stereochemistry which give maximum yields of the desired products. This is particularly so with reactions proceeding __via__ cyclic transi

โฆ Synopsis
Stereochemical studies on the oxyanion-accelerated [1,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement reactions of nonracemic cis-and trans-2-(1-cyclohexenyl)cyclobutanols are described. Epimerization of cis-2-(1-cyclohexenyl)cyclobutanol to the trans-isomer at -20ยฐC was found to proceed with predominant retention of configuration, the degree of which was enhanced by an increasing amount of 18-crown-6.
