Allylic alkali metal derivatives

Alkali Metal Derivatives of Metal Carbonyls, 2, 1S7 Alkyl and Aryl Derivatives of Transition Metals, 7, 1S7 Alkyl cobalt and Acylcobalt Tetracarbonyls, 4, 243 Allyl Metal Complexes, 2, 32S... 

The study of solvated alkali metal allyl species remains a complex topic due to a variety of reorganization processes. Structural data on alkali metal allyl derivatives include [G3H5Li(TMEDA)] 133,139 where solvated lithium ions act as... 

Calculations of alkali metal allyl derivatives involving all alkali metals (Li-Cs) indicate a preferred geometry with the metal symmetrically bound in a predominantly electrostatic manner to all three carbon atoms.143 Solution studies of allyllithium in ether indicate the compounds to be highly aggregated in THF complex dynamic behavior is observed. 

Stereo specific generation and reactions of allylic alkali and alkaline earth metals have been reviewed121 and solvent-mediated allylation of carbonyl compounds with allylstannanes has been explored.122 Chiral phosphoramides derived from (5 )-proliiie have been used to catalyse asymmetric allylation of aromatic aldehydes by allylic trichlorosilanes.123...
