RMgX and RLi as Bases • They remove the following types of protons readily
Gilman Reagents • Coupling with a vinylic halide is stereospecific; the configuration of the carbon-carbon double bond is retained.
Reaction of Gilman Reagents with Epoxides • Ring opening is regioselective.
Carbene • In its lowest electronic state, carbon is sp2 hybridized with the unshared pair of electrons occupying the third sp2 orbital.
