Abstract
An ab initio MO study of the allylation of α-methoxypropanal by allylboronic acid has been carried out. The calculated most stable transition state arrangement was found to be similar to that proposed by Cornforth. The Felkin–Anh orientation was found to be less stable than the Cornforth-like arrangement at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory in the six-membered cyclic transition state.
