What stereoisomers are formed when trans-hex-3-ene is treated with and Zn(Cu)?
In addition to organic halides, alkyl tosylates (R'OTs, Section 9.13) also react with organocuprates ( ) to form coupling products R-R'. When 2° alkyl tosylates are used as starting materials ( ), inversion of the configuration at a stereogenic center results. Keeping this in mind, draw the product formed when each compound is treated with .
