Ethynyl silyl ketone 1 proved to be a very efficient Michael acceptor in ca
rbocupration and metallocupration reactions. In particular, when using carb
ocuprates, a smooth entry to polyenals can be obtained, while, when using m
etallocuprates, silyl- and stannylpropenoyl silanes may be obtained, very p
owerful intermediates in organic synthesis. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
