Abstract

Alkylation of 2-methoxyethoxyphenyl phenyl methane using sec-BuLi and (−)-sparteine has been carried out in excellent yields and up to 94% ee. The best results were obtained in allylation reactions but methylation, ethylation, benzylation and trimethylsilylation have all been carried out with acceptable ee.
