Abstract
Pentadienylpotassium exhibits the U-shaped (Z,Z)-geometry in ethereal solution as confirmed by trimethylsilylation and by the NMR measurement while solvated pentadienyllithium assumes the W-shaped (E,E)-geoemtry. The EHMO calculation on the pentadienylpotassium indicates the substantial stability of the U-shaped geometry. A variety of transmetallation of pentadienylpotassium is summarized briefly. A novel preparative method of 2-butene-l,4-diylmagnesium, one of the allylic dianions, is also described. This bifunctional magnesium compound serves as a versatile reagent in organic and inorganic syntheses.
