1,4-Addition of Diisobutylaluminium Benzenetellurolate to α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds and Aldol Reaction of Resulting Aluminium Enolates

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/cl.1999.607

Diisobutylaluminium benzenetellurolate, prepared from diphenyl ditelluride and diisobutylaluminium hydride, easily added to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in 1,4-fashion to give β-phenyl-telluro carbonyl compounds.The intermediate aluminium enolates r
