Development of New Domino Reactions of Alkylidene Meldrum’s Acids Involving Friedel-Crafts Chemistry and Catalytic Conjugate Allylation of Alkylidene Meldrum’s Acids
Dumas, Aaron (University of Waterloo, 2009-10-02)Alkylidene Meldrum’s acids are very reactive acceptors in conjugate additions, and are known to be significantly more electrophilic than other α,β-unsaturated carbonyl electrophiles. They also offer advantages in terms of ...
