HMPA Promoted Sequential Transformations of Phosphonates. Highly Stereoselective Synthesis of (E)-4-Ethoxycarbonyl-γ,δ-unsaturated Nitriles
Abstract
The HMPA promoted sequential transformations of diethyl ethoxycarbonyl phosphonate with potassium tert-butoxide, acrylonitrile and aldehydes affords 4-ethoxycarbonyl-(E)-γ,δ-unsaturated nitriles in 71–86% yields.
