Abstract

Abstract β-Alkoxy and-silyloxy α, α-dichlorocarbenoids, stable at low temperature (− 100 C), undergo a rapid decomposition upon warming, either by α-elimination of ClLi or β- elimination of ROLi. β-Elimination is generally observed and leads to the formation of a dichloroalkene which reacts with excess of butyllithium (or lithium dialkylamide) to give the corresponding mono-substituted alkyne (or chloroalkyne) with good yields. α-Elimination ...
