Abstract
[Ru(mu-O2CH)(CO)(2)(PPh3)](2) in acetonitrile is an efficient catalyst prec ursor for the Michael addition of soft carbonucleophiles to butenone. The u tilization of terminal alkynes as donors makes possible the selective forma tion of gamma,delta-ynones. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reser ved.
