Abstract
Diastereoisomers of laterally lithiated tertiary naphthamides are configurationally stable at the lithium-bearing stereogenic centre at -40°C. The syn diastereoisomer, which may be farmed by stereoselective deprotonation or stereospecific transmetallation, reacts stereospecifically, but both the tin-lithium exchange leading to the anti diastereoisomer and its subsequent reactions are characterised by an unprecedented lack of stereospecificity.
