Organoytterbium ate complexes extend the value of cyclobutenediones as isoprene equivalents
3-Methyl-4-alkoxycyclobuten-1,2-diones have long been recognised as valuable isoprene equivalents. Being readily introduced to a substrate as the electrophilic component in an organolithium addition reaction, the thermochemical rearrangement of the resulting adducts give access to quinones, benzoqui...
