Abstract

Abstract While the reduction of alkynyl ethers with lithium aluminum hydride (or with sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy) aluminum hydride) gives almost exclusively O-alkyl enol ethers with (E) configuration, the reaction with sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy) aluminum hydride pretreated with one equivalent of a free alcohol leads stereoselectively to enol ethers with (Z) configuration.
