โฆ Synopsis
In the reactions of variously substituted allyltin reagents toward achiral alkoxyaldehydes, one of the diastereomeric homoallyl alcohols was stereoselectively obtained by the help of BF 3 , while TiCl 4 preferentially gave the other diastereomer, though (E)-and (Z)-3-monoalkylallyltin reagents were exceptional. This reversible diastereoselectivity can be explained by the coordination geometry (anti or syn) of the Lewis acids toward alkoxyaldehydes.

The Lewis acid-promoted reaction of 3,3-disul3stituted allyltins toward aldehydes was found to be stefeospecific; the (E)-reagent gave syn-products and the (Z)-one gave anti-products. This is in contrast to that of 3-mono-su~tituted congeners which are known to react syn-stereoselectively regardless
Stereoselectively prepared (Z)-3-deuterioallyltin and (E)-3-deuterioallylsilicon were allowed to react with aldehydes in the presence of BF 3 โขOEt 2 . The stereospecifically afforded products were predominantly an anti-homoallyl alcohol from the (Z)-reagent and a syn-one from the (E)-reagent. These
