Aa. Dos Santos et al., A new approach to the synthesis of (+/-)-methyl jasmonate and (+/-)-baclofen via conjugated addition of oxazoline cyanocuprate to Michael acceptors., J BRAZ CHEM, 12(5), 2001, pp. 673-679
Introduction of a synthon equivalent to a carboxymethyl anion to enones and
nitroalkenes, through a 1,4- addition reaction of 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-oxazol
ine cyanocuprate 3, proved to be an interesting methodology for the synthes
is of natural products such as (+/-)-methyl jasmonate (1) and (+/-)-baclofe
n (2).
