Synthesis of Substituted 2-Decalones from 1-Acetylcyclohexenes and α-Trimethylsilyl α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds by Two-Fold Michael Reactions. Synthesis of (±)-Khusitone
Synthesis of Substituted 2-Decalones from 1-Acetylcyclohexenes and α-Trimethylsilyl α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds by Two-Fold Michael Reactions. Synthesis of (±)-Khusitone
The kinetic enolates of 1-acetyl cyclohexenes undergo two-fold Michael reaction with α,-trimethylsilyl α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds to produce 5-substituted 2-decalones. The application of this reaction has enabled a synthesis of (±)-khusitone.
