Asymmetric synthesis using chiral vinyl ethers

Using chiral alcohol precursors, a number of chiral vinyl ethers were prepared by mercuric acetate-catalysed transetherification with butyl vinyl ether. a-Lithiation of (1R)-menthyl vinyl ether was unsuccessful under a variety of conditions. (1S)-(Menthylthio)ethene was prepared from (1S)-menthaneth...
