Abstract

... The Journal of Organic ... So far, only colored carbanions of relatively low nucleophilicity (N < 20) have been characterized.(5-10). In view of the frequent use of cyano substituted carbanions in organic synthesis, we have selected the carbanions 1a−c and 2a−c for systematic ... j ...
