Abstrakt: Reaction of the 2-(3-phenyl-2-propen-1-yl) oxazolines 1and 3with organolithium reagents leads to cyclobutane ring formation by a novel tandem carbolithiation/cyclization sequence. The products (e.g., 2aand 4a) may be hydrolyzed to the corresponding substituted cyclobutanones (e.g., 7and 8).
