The Friedel-Crafts alkylation of benzene with (+)-2-methyloxetane in the presence of Lewis acids (AlCl3, SnCl4, and TiCl4) gave 3-phenyl-1-butanol with 20–60% inversion of configuration at the reaction center and a mixture of 4-chloro-2-butanol and 3-chloro-1-butanol in opticallyactive form as the by-products. These by products were formed by the attack of the chlorine atom in Lewis acid. The stereochemical
