Abstract
Transmetalation of organolithium reagents RLi (R = CH 3, n-Bu) with manganese pivalate produces reagents of the type RMnOC(O) tBu which react stereoselectively with substituted cyclohexanones to afford the axial alcohols preferentially. These reagents as well as cerium ate complexes RCe(O iPr) 3MgX react aldehyde-selectively in the presence of ketone functionality.
