Abstract
A new procedure for the preparation of 2E,4E-dienals 4 is described based on the addition of organometallic reagents to silylated glutaconaldehyde 2 [(2E,4E)-5-trialkylsiloxy-2,4-pentadienal] as a five-carbon synthon. Application of the methodology to the synthesis of two dienamide natural products (pellitorine and sarmentine) are discussed.
