Abstract

Described herein is an efficient preparative scale synthesis of 1-(2-methyoxyethoxy)-1- vinylcyclopropane and the investigation of the utility of this reagent as a new five-carbon component in metal-catalyzed [5+ 2] cycloadditions. A new cycloaddition procedure is also described that proceeds up to 12-fold faster and with 10-fold less catalyst than previously described, providing cycloheptenones in many cases in minutes and in isolated yields of ...
