Abstract
Structure determination on 2-benzenesulphonyl-3-trimethylsilylbicyclo (3) d emonstrates that the double bonds are pyramidalized in the exo direction. N ucleophilic attack (conjugate reduction) on 3 parallels this pyramidalizati on and occurs exclusively from the endo face. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd . All rights reserved.
