All articles of this category Primary allyl alcohols are converted into allyltributylstannanes in a one-pot operation. It entails (i) deprotonation with BuLi, (ii) sulfonylation with mesyl chloride, and (iii) nucleophilic substitution by LiSnBu 3 . Conversions are quantitative with isolated yields ranging from 70% to 100%. If the starting allyl alcohol contains a stereogenic double bond its configuration is retained. allyl alcohols - allylstannanes - stereoselectivity
