Abstract
An improved procedure for the preparation of the O,2-dianion of allyl alcohol is described. The use of the magnesium alkoxide of 2-bromoprop en-1-ol instead of the known lithium salt, suppresses dehydrohalogenat ion upon treatment with tert-butyl lithium and furnishes the dianion. Addition of this dianion to a variety of carbonyl compounds affords th e expected products in good yield.
