(α-Iodoalkyl)trimethylsilanes and (α-chloroalkyl)-(dimethyl)phenylsilanes are convenient reagents for the highly stereoselective synthesis of di- and trisubstituted alkenes via the Peterson olefination reaction. Studies that led to the development of these compounds are reviewed. False leads and final successes are placed in context. 1. Introduction 2.
