When chiral esters of ylids derived from N-methyltetrahydro-pyridine ('NMTP') undergo rearrangement, the reactions show exclusive cis-stereoselectivity but the products are obtained with virtually no absolute stereocontrol. These observations support the notion that sigmatropic rearrangements of N-chiral ammonium ylids are controlled by nitrogen stereogenicity. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
