β¦ Synopsis
By mediation of BFs.EtsO, dithio-substituted cinnamyllithium 2 reacted predominantly at the o-site with carbonyl compounds. No selectivity was found when the reaction was performed in the absence of BFs.Et20.
We have recently observed the dichotomous regiochemistry of aldehyde and ketone in addition reactions with a lithium anion 1 generated from 2-propenyl-1,3-dithiane.

Lithium diorganocuprates are now widely used in conjugate additions to a,a-unsaturated car-bony1 compounds' and in coupling reactions with alkyl halides2, allyli~acetates~, and other compounds possessing good leaving groups. Here we report a new reaction of lithium dialkylcuprates which is formally
