1-Silylvinyl ketones undergo smooth Michael addition with Grignardreagents generating magnesium enolates which are then trapped with benzaldehyde to give E- and Z-isomers of enones after Peterson condensation. (E)-Olefins become major products under a thermodynamic control when the condensation with benzaldehyde is carried out at room temperature in diethylether, while Z-isomers are more favored
Abstract A stereospecific synthesis of enones 3 by coupling reaction of α-acetoxy alkyl methylvinylketones 2 and Gilman or Grignard reagents in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper (I) salt at low temperature, is described.
A novel copper(II)-catalyzed, regioselective C-H benzylation of enones with toluenes via radical triggered oxidative coupling has been developed. A series of enones and toluenes with different substituents were successfully incorporated, providing a wide range of alpha-benzylated enones with TBP as oxidant by cleavage of C(sp(3)) H bond and C(sp(2)) H bond. Preliminary mechanistic study reveals a benzylic carbon radical is generated, and regioselectively reacts with enones to deliver the corresponding products.
