Abstract

The Grignard reagents 2 derived from 2-(2bromoethyl)-and 2-(3-chloropropyl)-l, 3-dioxolane undergo conjugate addition to a number of a, B-unsaturated ketones in the presence of a catalytic amount of a cuprous salt. The resulting keto acetals, upon treatment with hydrochloric acid, undergo sequential hydrolysis, intramolecular aldol condensation, and dehydration to give cyclopentene and cyclohexene annulation products. The entire series ...
