Abstract
[reaction: see text] Treatment of (Z)-2-pyridine and quinoline silylated vinylacetylenes at reflux with several alcohols in the presence of a suitable inorganic base (KOH, K2CO3, CsF, or KF) serendipitously gave 3-alkoxylmethylindolizines and the corresponding 1-alkoxymethylpyrrolo [1,2-a]quinolines and not the anticipated desilylated vinylacetylene derivatives. A mechanistic possibility for this unexpected chemical transformation is suggested.
