Notes:
tert-Butyl and 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-methylphenyl (BHT) cyclopropanecarboxylates (4, 6, 24, 25) are lithiated with LiN(i-Pr)2 and t-BuLi, respectively. Reactions with alkyl halides, aldehydes, acyl chlorides, and heteroelectrophiles give α-substituted BHT esters which can be cleaved (t-BuOK/H2O/THF) to the corresponding carboxylic acids or reduced (LiAlH4/THF) to the cyclopropanemethanols.
