Abstract

Abstract: The treatment of a,@-unsaturated esters having a ketone function at an appropriate position with either TBDMSOTf in the presence of Et3N or TMSI in the presence of (TMS) 2NH provided, via a tandem intramolecular Michael-aldol reaction sequence, several different types of cyclobutane derivatives. The two reaction conditions were complementary. Tricycl0 [4.2. 1.0~~~] nonane~ 34 and 55, tricyclo [5. 1.1. 04* 8] nonane 40, tricycl0 [5.4. ...
