FORMATION AND REACTIVITY OF HIGHLY STABILIZED CARBANIONS AND ENOLATES BY Pd-CATALYZED ALKYLATION OF HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS
Highly stabilized carbanion and enolate salts, heterocycle-substituted sodiomalononitrile and sodiocyanoacetates, were synthesized via Pd-catalyzed ring-alkylation of bromoheterocyclic compounds and shown to be useful intermediates for the synthesis of va
