Anionotropic isomerization of the enynic block of (Z,E)-2-octen-4-yn-1-ol in super basic media MNH(CH,),NH,/H,N(CH,),NH, (M = Li, Na) and the following alkylation in situ of the metallated product was studied. The influence of the strength of the super base and the structure of the alkylating agent to the yield and isomeric composition of products were determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
