Abstract

Abstract: Upon treating triene sulfoxide 2 or 3 in the presence of methanol (internal proton source> in ether with tert-butyllithium, the reduced product 4b or 4c, respectively, is obtained with retention of configuration. A deuterium label can be incorporated by using methanol-O- d1 as the internal proton source.
