β¦ Synopsis
A stereoselective method for the conversion of a tributyltin group at an unactivated carbon atom has been achieved.
Reaction with bromine leads to preferential cleavage of a butyl group, giving an alkylbromodibutylstannane. Subsequent reaction with basic peroxide leads to preferential cleavage of the more-substituted carbon-tin bond and formation of the corresponding alcohol with retention of configuration.
Organotin reagents have emerged as valuable reagents for synthetic organic chemistry'.
