More recently, Barbero et al. demonstrated the addition of various<br />

organometallic reagents (RLi, RMgX etc.) to (Z)-β-vinylstannylated ketones with high<br />

enentio- or diaseteroselectivity. The presence of the stannylvinyl group in the ketone 47<br />

ensures a remarkable stereocontrol in the organometallic addition at the carbonyl centre<br />

(Scheme II.1.8). 54<br />

Besides these, allylation of carbonyls has also emerged as an important method to<br />

obtain chiral homoallylic alcohols. Several protocols have been developed towards this<br />

endeavour, which are briefly discussed in the following section.<br />
