Abstract
A mixture of Zn, CeCl3, 3-bromo-1-tributylstannylpropene and aldehyde or ke tone in THF/PhH (v/v=9/1) was sonicated in a commercial cleaning bath. delt a-Tributylstannylhomoallyl alcohol was produced as the sole regioselective product and (E)-stereoisomer was formed as major adduct. Silyl Misoprostol was synthesized by the coupling reaction of cyclopentenone and stannylhomoa llyl alcohol. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
