(2) Because of the general lack of serious concern about the chemistry of metal homoenolates (except their synthetic equivalents), the word'homoenolate" has been related only loosely to the carbon anion 1. Etymologically, however," homoenolate" anion should mean the oxygen anion 2, similar to the case of" enolate". In spite of such formalism, we prefer using" metal homoenolate" as the term for 1; for 2 is more commonly called ...
