Application

1-Naphthylmagnesium bromide can be used:
  • To prepare unsymmetrical chiral diene ligands, which are applicable in asymmetric transformation reactions.
  • As a starting material in the synthesis of methyl (2Z,4E)-2-methylsulfanyl-5-(1-naphthyl)-4-nitro-2,4-pentadienoate, a naphthylnitrobutadiene based anti-proliferative compound.

An operationally simple and scalable synthesis of enantiomerically pure bicyclo[2.2.2]octadiene (bod*) ligands relying on an organocatalytic one-pot Michael addition-aldol reaction with cheap 2-cyclohexenone and phenylacetaldehyde is presented. The crystalline bicyclic product 4a (6-hydroxy-5-phenylbicyclo[2.2.2]octan-2-one) is transformed into phenylbicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-en-2-one 2, a versatile
