Abstract
Bis(trans-1-hexenyl)methylborane, prepared by the reaction of bis(trans-1-hexenyl)chloroborane with methyllithium, was treated with 2 molar equivalents of methylcopper(I) at −78 °C to give (5E,7E)-5,7-dodecadiene quantitatively. The result indicates the presence of trans-1-hexenylcopper(I) intermediate.
