Abstract
Lithiated allylic phosphonates undergo efficient olefination reactions with a variety of aldehydes in the presence of HMPA to give terminal 1,3-dienes with high selectivity for the E- isomer. This method is general and procedurally simple.
Key words
aldehydes - alkenation - phosphorus - Wittig reactions - ylides

14 While this work was underway, Schlosser and Liu reported a highly stereoselective synthesis of (E )-1,3-dienes with allylphosphonates.
[15 4 ), and we could not consistently reproduce the reported results (74% yield, 99:1 E /Z ).

19a BuLi (1.2 equiv) was added to 5a and HMPA (2.4 equiv) in THF at -78 °C, and the solution was stirred for 1 h. Aldehyde 2 in THF was added dropwise and the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to r.t.; yield <20%.
