Abstract

Summary: The reaction of 2, 2-disubstituted 1, 3-cyclohexanediones (1) with dimethyl methylphosphonate anion in the presence of trimethylsilyl chloride produces 3-substituted 2- cyclohexenones (2) in moderate to very good yields. This new overall reaction is accounted for by (a) attack of the phosphonate anion on a carbonyl group,(b) retro-aldol cleavage,(c) reorganization of the acidic proton, and (d) an intramolecular Wadsworth-Emmonds ...
