ChemInform Abstract: Pyrolysis of Azetidinone Derivatives: A Versatile Route Towards Electron‐Rich Alkenes, C‐1 Allylation and/or Homologation of Aldehydes.

Abstract

Alkenes, C-1 Allylation and/or Homologation of Aldehydes. -Azetidinone and azetidinthione derivatives are transformed into valuable intermediates including electron-rich Z-olefins (III) and 4-pentenal derivatives [e.g. (VII)]. -(AL-HAMDAN, N.
