We recently described the regioselective addition of singlet oxygen ('02) to various cyclopropylethylenes and reported easy cyclopropyl hydrogen abstractions (Ia> ; moreover with methoxy-substituted olefins we found a stereoselective control of the methoxy group which leads to a strong preference f
The enol ether 7 undergoes rapid conversion into a 2:3 mixture of cis aldol9 and trans aldol 11 in the presence of copper(X) triflate (0.1 equiv) and water (1 equiv) in MeCN with no intermediate formation of the corresponding ketoaidehyde 12. In the presence of oxygen, slow oxygenation of the aldols
