Abstract

An efficient and chemoselective nitrogen nucleophilic addition/enamine migration cascade reaction was explored, in which a range of enaminones and propynyl carbonyl compounds were converted into highly functionalized conjugated diene derivatives in good to high yields. The mechanism of the intermolecular enamine migration pathway was proposed according to the results of a cross reaction. This method provides a new and direct approach for the synthesis of conjugated diene motifs.
