Abstract

Secondary lithium dialkylcuprates react with αβ-ethylenic aldehydes to give a mixture of 1, 2 and 1, 4 addition products. Only 1, 2 addition products are obtained with allylic and acetylenic cuprates whereas homallylic, phenyl and vinylic cuprates give 1, 4 addition products. The 1, 4 1, 2 ratio also depends on the nature of the metal in the cuprate (Mg or Li). Thus chloromagnesium dimethyl cuprate, in THF, is the most favorable compound to give ...
