RT journal article T1 Deconjugative α-alkylation of cyclohexenecarboxaldehydes: An access to diverse terpenoids A1 Chahboun, Rachid A1 Botubol Ares, José Manuel A1 Durán Peña, María Jesús A1 Jiménez, Fermín A1 Álvarez Manzaneda, Ramón A1 Álvarez Manzaneda, Enrique A2 Química Orgánica AB A general and efficient method for the deconjugativeα-alkylation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes promoted by asynergistic effect between tBuOK and NaH, which considerablyincreases the reaction rate under mild conditions, is reported. Theβ,γ-unsaturated aldehyde, resulting from the α-alkylation, istransformed in high yield into the corresponding allyl acetate viaa lead(IV) acetate-mediated oxidative fragmentation. This strategycould be used for the construction of the carbon skeleton of a widevariety of alkyl or arylterpenoids.
