Reactions of organo-metal compounds
Reactions of organo-metal compounds O 0350A Simple One-Pot Organometallic Formylation/Trapping Sequence Using N-Formylcarbazole. -The reaction of N-formyl carbazole (I) with organometallic reagents generates metastable anionic carbazole carbinol salts. These salts release aldehydes which are trapped in situ by a second nucleophile forming α,β-unsaturated esters (IV) and (VII) or the alcohols (X). -(DIXON*, D. J.; LUCAS, A.
