Abstract
Isomerization-free reactions of dienyl carbonates (1-3) with chelated amino acid ester enolates at -78 degrees C provide important information concerning the mechanism of these dienylations. The formation of regioisomeric products can be explained by competing SN2/SN2' reactions, and the product distribution can be influenced by proper choice of the reaction conditions.
