Abstract
Part I: Exposure of a mixture of propargyl vinyl ketone and a nucleophilic primary or secondary amine to activated dry silica gel in the absence of solvent leads to a cascade of reactions that results in the formation of an aminocyclopentenone. The reaction with triethylamine leads to a cross-conjugated cyclopentadienone. Part II: A general protocol for preparing densely functionalized cyclopentenones through a tandem alkylation-cyclization process is described. Addition of lithioallene 1.11 to enamide 1.5 generates tetrahedral intermediate 1.12. Deprotonation of the γ-carbon atom of the allene function in situ. followed by trapping by a suitable electrophile and cyclization during workup leads to C6 substituted cyclopentenone 1.14.
