- Abstract
The reactions of benzalacetone with n-BuMgBr and PhMgBr have been compared with the corresponding reactions with the diorganomagnesium complexes of ether and pyridine. The results obtained by using different mole ratios of reactants and orders of addition show that the conjugated addition reaction is enhanced if a monomeric diorganomagnesium reagent is available; this condition can be realized either by adding a diorganomagnesium complex to the ketone or by complexing the diorganomagnesium with pyridine. Probable reaction mechanisms for normal and conjugated addition reactions are suggested.
