Abstract
The favourable effect of lithium bromide enhancing the facial enantios electivity in the protonation of methyl tetralone enolate with alpha-s ulfinyl alcohols is described. Theoretical calculations allow to propo se a model to explain the stereochemical course of the protonation rea ction. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
