Abstract
6-Methylseleno-6-phenyl-1-phenyithio-1-heptene and 7-methylseleno-7-ph enyl-2-phenylthio-2-octene produce 1-phenyl-2-(1'-phenylthioethyl)-cyc lopentanes with high stereocontrol at all the three stereogenic center s on sequential reaction with butyllithium and methyl iodide or methan ol respectively. Depending upon the solvent used, the derivative in wh ich the methyl- and the phenylthio group are cis (THF) or trans (penta ne) one to the other are selectively formed.
