Abstract

Substituted 2-cyclohexenones 4 to 7 and hexaxydronaphthalenones and hexahydroindenones 13 to 18 are prepared by tandem Michael-Dieckmann addition of lithium dienediolates of acyclic and alicyclic unsaturated carboxylic acids to the lithium salts of the same or other unsaturated carboxylic acids.
