Abstract

Base-catalyzed isomerization of trans-3-methoxy-1-phenylpropene yields stereospecifically as the initial product cis-1-methoxy-3-phenylpropene. This is caused by the (intermediate) formation of the cis-1-methoxy-trans-3-phenylallyl anion (I), which is energetically favored over the trans-isomeric anion (II). The NMR spectra of I and II are described. [on SciFinder (R)]
