Carbamates, vinylogous reaction with Grignard reagents

The Knoevenagel condensation is the method of choice for the preparation of a,p-unsaturated dicarbonyl compounds and related compounds and only a few alternative methods have been developed. However, with the traditional Knoevenagel condensation there are problems with the reactivity of ketones, with the competitive Michael addition occuring in the reaction of some active methylene compounds. There is also a problem with steieocontrol in the synthesis of Knoevenagel products from unsymmetrical 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. An alternative method is the addition of Grignard reagents to vinylogous carbamates (see Section 11.2.6). Another possibility is the reaction of a metal ketimate with malonodini-trile to yield ylidenemalonodinitriles (see Section 11.3.1.7). ...
