Abstract
Reaction of the cyclic enones (6)–(11) with the structurally interesting cuprate reagent (2) and (3) provides very good yields of the conjugate addition products (12)–(17); treatment of the latter substancesh with potassium hydride in tetrahydrofuran affords the methylenecyclopentane annulation products (18)–(23), respectively.
