“…[5] Additionally,a lkyl, aryl, and vinyl Grignard reagents provided the pyridines in high yields.T wo cyclopropyl Grignard reagents were incorporated without any evidence of ring opening (41, 42). Overall, the reaction is notable for its ability to 1) incorporate sp 3 -, sp 2 -, and sp-hybridized carbon nucleophiles,2 )accommodate organolithium, organozinc, and organomagnesium reagents,a nd 3) introduce electrophilic functional groups including nitriles and esters.…”
