Abstract
This invention encompasses a process for preparing higher order cuprate complexes which contain a carbanion for the formation of carbon to carbon bonds in reactions such as 1,4-conjugate addition. The complex is formed by reacting a first cuprate complex with a stannane such that the carbanion to be used to form carbon to carbon bonds is transferred from the stannane to the first cuprate complex to form a different higher order cuprate complex. This process permits the in situ preparation of a higher order cuprate complex having the carbanion desired to be used in a synthetic reaction. Higher order cuprate complexes prepared by this process are particularly useful for the efficient preparation of pharmacologically active prostaglandins.
