BuLi provid<strong>in</strong>g a lithiumalcoholate that, after the addition <strong>of</strong> ZnCl 2 and an aldehyde,<br />

provides the expected addition product 167 with an excellent diastereoselectivity<br />

[120]. Oppolzer et al. have shown that the magnesium-ene reaction is a versatile<br />

method for add<strong>in</strong>g allylic magnesium reagents to alkenes <strong>in</strong> an <strong>in</strong>tramolecular<br />

fashion [122]. A z<strong>in</strong>c-ene [123] reaction can be <strong>in</strong>itiated by the addition <strong>of</strong><br />

BuLi to tert-butyl ketone 168 followed by the addition <strong>of</strong> z<strong>in</strong>c chloride. The result<strong>in</strong>g<br />

z<strong>in</strong>cated spiro-derivative 169 is quenched with an acid chloride lead<strong>in</strong>g to the<br />

ketone 170 <strong>in</strong> 60% and > 98% syn-diastereoselectivity (Scheme 7.51) [120d].<br />
