Abstract
Polysubstituted enynes have been lithiated on the propargylic position , and transmetalation to the corresponding zinc reagents promotes an e asy cyclization reaction leading to polysubstituted cyclopentylmethylz inc derivatives. This cyclization is stereospecific, and a single dias tereoisomer is formed, even when a tertiary and a quaternary center ar e linked in the process. The reaction is considered to take place via a metallo-ene-allene process.
