Abstract

Replacing carcinogenic HMPA with NMO, a higher yielding, enviornmentally benign procedure for the vinylalumination of carbonyl compounds with [α-(ethoxycarbonyl)-vinyl] diisobutylaluminium and its β-methyl or-phenyl analogs, as well as [α-(acetyl) vinyl] diisobutylaluminium has been developed.
