Abstract
The synthesis of cis-tamoxifen, non antiestrogenic tetrasubstituted olefin, was achieved via carboalumination of diphenylacetylene as a key step. Conversion to the antiestrogenic trans-tamoxifen was achieved by facile cis-trans isomerization of the corresponding phenol by acid or catalysts.
