Abstract

We were recently interested in the reactivity of electrophiles with organocerium reagents: 1 inexpensive, nontoxic, and nonbasic organometallic reagents introduced in the 1980s. 2 These reagents show low basicity and high nucleophilicity as opposed to organolithium and Grignard reagents; 2b therefore, they can be used with enolizable substrates (eg, benzyl ketones, 2a phosphinoyl ketones, 1c enaminones1e, g). However, they have never been ...
