26. 2 could not be determined precisely; the yield of the reaction is estimated assuming conversion to complex 5 alone, the major material isolated in this procedure. The actual yield of the reaction is lower.
27. Preparation of cinnamyllithium: In a Schlenk flask, a THF solution (25 mL) of freshly distilled allyl benzene (5.0 mL. 37.7 mmol) was cooled to - 78 °C. η-Butyllithium (18.1 mL, 2.5 M in hexanes) was transferred via cannula into the flask, and the reaction mixture was left to stir for 1 h at - 78 °C. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for an additional hour. Removal of the solvent in vacuo yielded a yellow solid residue, which was washed repeatedly with hexane (4 × 25 mL) to give a brilliant yellow powder (3.98 g, 85%). This material was used without further characterization.
