Abstract

alpha-Aminoalkylcuprates prepared from CuX.2LiCl (X = Cl, CN) and 1 equiv of an alpha-lithiocarbamate undergo conjugate addition reactions to alpha,beta-alkynyl ketones in moderate to good yields, affording E:Z mixtures of alpha,beta-enones. Treatment of the conjugate adducts with PhOH/TMSCl in CH(2)Cl(2) effected carbamate deprotection and cyclization to afford a flexible two-step synthesis of substituted pyrroles.
