Abstract
The lithiation/borylation-protodeboronation of a homoallyl carbamate was applied to the synthesis of (+)-sertraline and (+)-indatraline. Due to the presence of the alkene, significant modifications of the methodology were required (use of 12-crown-4, TMSCl, H(2)O), or a solvent switch to CHCl(3), to achieve high yields and high selectivities.
