Abstract
P-Aminosubstituted a,P-unsaturated Fischer carbene complexes of types 6/7/8 and 21 are readily available in two steps or even a single-pot operation from hexacarbonylchromium and the appropriate alkyne 4 via the alkynyl-substituted complexes 5 by Michael type addition of a secondary (primary) mine or ammonia. With the right choice of substituents and reaction conditions, they can selectively react to give 2H-pyrroles 20 (ref. 17), 5-dialkylamino-3-alkoxycyclopenta- 1,3-dienes 42 (which are synthetic equivalents of cyclopentenones and even cyclopentadienones) (refs. 29,3 I), pyridines 25 (ref. 19), 54 1 '-dialkylaminoalkenylidene)-4-ethoxycyclo- pent-2-enones 32 (ref. 25), 2-( 1'-dialkylamino- I'-alkenyl)cyclopent-2-enones 38 (ref. 27), 2-acyl-3-dialkylaminocyclopent-2-enones 33 (ref. 26) and cyclopenta(b)pyrans 26 (refs. 20,23).
