Abstract
On the other side of the Traxler? The stereochemical outcome of the allylation reaction of 3,3-disubstituted allylzinc species with aldehydes shows that the aryl or alkyl group of the electrophilic carbonyl reactant occupies a pseudoaxial position in the Zimmerman-Traxler transition state to avoid gauche interactions (see scheme).
