Intramolecular Cyclization of 2-(Alkoxycarbonyl)allylsilanes with Ynones. Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Aspects of the 2-(Alkoxycarbonyl)allylsilane Moiety

Abstract

The 2-(alkoxycarbonyl)allylsilane moiety acts simultaneously as both nucleophile and electrophile when ethyl 10-oxo-2-(trimethylsilylmethyl)undec-2-en-8-ynoate is treated with tetrabutylammonium fluoride.
