Reaction of (Z)-1,4-diketones with various functionalized nitroalkanes in the presence of DBU gives 4-alkylidenecyclopent-2-en-1-ones with E selectivity. A cyclopentadienone intermediate is probably formed by intramolecular aldol condensation, and this reacts with a nitroalkane giving a Michael addition-elimination.
