Abstract

A convenient and gentle method for the synthesis of α-cyanoenamines based on the Peterson olefination has been developed. For these sensitive, highly functionalized olefins, the present method is superior to the Horner-Emmons condensation, as manifested by the higher yields and broader scope.
