Abstract
Addition of diethyl thiophosphite to terminal alkenes, in the presence of a radical initiator, followed by deprotonation of the phosphonothioate and reaction with a ketone, offers a concise one-pot approach to substituted alkenes. This novel method which can incorporate alkylation or acylation steps, can be applied to the stereoselective formation of sterically hindered tri- and tetrasubstituted alkenes.
