Abstract

Tetramethylnorbornadiene, a Versatile Alkene for Cyclopentenone Synthesis Through Intermolecular Pauson-Khand Reactions. -A number of substituted cyclopentenones can be prepared by this convenient method. The use of chiral cobalt complexes such as (XIII) allows formation of optically active precursors. -(REVES, M.; LLEDO, A.; JI, Y.; BLASI, E.; RIERA*, A.; VERDAGUER, X.; Org.
