According to these results, reactions of H 2C C(OH)Li with CH 3 + and CH 3 - are investigated thoroughly. When H 2C C(OH)Li reacts with CH 3 +, H 2C C(OH)Li firstly changes from structure 1 to structure 4, and then combines with CH 3 +. In this reaction, the configuration of central carbon is retained. When H 2C C(OH)Li reacts with CH 3 -, structure 1 firstly breaks its CO bond to give contact ionpair. Then through transition state 16 which is similar to structure 2, the attack of CH 3 - from the opposite side of -OH replaces -OH group and inverts the configuration of carbenoid carbon atom. All the results show that the ambident reactivity of carbenoid has close relationship with the stability of special structures.展开更多
