Abstract
A novel 1,2-difunctionalization of alkynones via an umpolung strategy for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted olefins has been developed. This procedure is realized by a formal C-C σ-bond cleavage reaction of cyclic α,α-dithioketones and subsequent deprotection. Notable features of this approach include excellent yields, mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, and operational simplicity.
