The stereodirecting effects of substrate substituents were examined in addition of 1:CH2 to the double bonds of 3-methoxycyclohexene (3a), 3-chlorocyclohexene (3b), and 3-methylcyclohexene (3c) in pentane solution at temperatures fro
Synthetic Applications of Metal Halides.Conversion of Cyclopropylmethanols into Homoallylic Halides.

Magnesium and beryllium halides in refluxing diethyl ether effect the transformation of cyclopropylmethanols into homoallylic halides,in contrast to several other metal halides and Lewis acid/nucleophile combinations which were examined.Magnesium bromide and iodide are particularly effective: conditions are mild,yields are high,and little or no byproducts are formed.Tertiary and benzylic alcohols are more reactive than secondary alcohols,while the latter are converted into E homoallylic halides with high stereoselectivity.Cyclopropylmethanol itself fails to react.In the cases of magnesium halide reactions with bicyclo-2-hexanol and bicyclo-2-heptanol,addition of an equimolar amount of zinc halide not only caused substantial rate enhancement but also increased regioselectivity.
