Stereospecific Conjugate Alkenyl Group Transfer to α,β-Enones Using Vinylalane Reagents

Abstract
Trans- Alkenyl alanes (easily prepared by hydroalumination of an acetylene) promote the stereospecific 1,4- delivery of the olefinic unit to conjugated ketones. This new conjugate addition reaction provides easy access to trans-γ,δ-unsaturated ketones which would otherwise be available with difficulty.
