Abstract
A diastereoselective synthesis of 1,3‐butadiene or cyclobutene derivatives by a zirconium‐mediated reaction of alkenyllithium compounds and vinyl bromides is reported. The key steps involve the generation of zirconocene–alkyne complexes from haloalkenes and subsequent coupling with alkenyl bromides. Thus, formally the process supposes the cross‐coupling reaction between a terminal alkyne and an alkenyl bromide. Moreover, the use of butyl vinyl ether instead of vinyl bromide as the unsaturated system allows an alternative access to different 1,3‐butadiene regioisomers.
