Reaction of the cyclic enones (6)-(11) with the structurally interesting cuprate reagents (2) and (3) provides very good yields of the conjugate addition products (12)-(17); treatment of the latter substances with potassium hydride in tetrahydrofuran affords the methylenecyclopentane annulation products (18)-(23), respectively.
