Abstract
The conjugate base of pentacarbonyl(methylpyrrolidinocarbene)chromium(0) (1) easily reacts with aldehydes, yielding aldol products (2). The latter are converted into the corresponding pentacarbonyl(alkenylpyrrolidinocarbene) complexes with high E selection under very mild conditions.Keywords
