Herein, we report a new application of β-nitroenones as valuable building blocks for the preparation of polyfunctionalized homoallylic alcohols; they can be used as key precursors of conjugated nitrotriene systems. The synthesis of homoallylic alcohols was performed exploiting the chemoselective addition of metal allylating agents to the ketone moiety vs the nitroalkenyl group. The conversion of alcohols into nitrotrienes was achieved under Lewis-acid-promoted conditions. Both classes of compoun ...[more]
