Abstract

The title compounds 2 and 9 react with tert-butyllithium to give considerable amounts of 'anti-Michael' adducts 3 and 10, respectively, in which the tert-butyl group is bonded to C-2. ... A single-electron-transfer (SET) mechanism is proposed for these reactions. Both compounds behave as Michael acceptors towards n-butyllithium. ... Copyright © 1999-2015 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
