Abstract

The __t__Bu‐P4 base was found to be an excellent catalyst for the activation of organozinc reagents. The base was used to promote the S~N~2′ reaction of α,β‐unsaturated esters bearing a γ‐chloride in the reactions with various organozinc reagents in the presence of LiCl. The reactions proceeded in high yield with excellent chemo‐and regioselectivity. The role of LiCl appears to be the activation of the γ‐chloride of the α,β‐unsaturated esters, which was confirmed by NMR spectroscopic study.
