Abstract

A bifunctional silyl reagent Me2(CH2CH)SiCN has been developed as a novel ethylene equivalent for the Diels-Alder (DA) reaction. The use of this reagent enables the controllable synthesis of value-added cyclohexenyl ketones or 2-acyl cyclohexancarbonitrile derivatives through a five- or six-step tandem sequence based on a Wittig/cyanosilylation/DA reaction/retro-cyanosilylation/isomerization sequence that involves a temporary silicon-tethered intramolecular DA reaction.
