Conjugate addition question
« on: April 05, 2015, 06:22:14 AM »
I was wondering what this organocopper reagent would do in a conjugate addition?
Would it add to the C=C side? I did some research and the reagent is lithium [dimethyl(phenyl)silyl]-iodidocuprate(I)? Can anyone give me some hint?
Thank you!
