The synthetic utility of organometallic additions to pyrylium salts as a procedure for the stereocontrolled preparation of 2Z,4E-dienals, and the use of these compounds in polyene natural product synthesis, is summarised.The extension of this methodology to 4-methylpyrylium tetrafluoroborate to give a new route to 3-methyl-2Z,4E-dienals via a six-carbon organometallic homologation procedure is then described.Finally, the utilisation of this methodology to provide a concise synthetic approach to 13Z-retinal, retinal and a range of retinal analogues is then elaborated.

Bestmann, Hans Juergen,Ermann, Peter,Rueppel, Hartmann,Sperling, Walter
, p. 479 - 498 (2007/10/02)
The syntheses of 13-demethyl-13-ethyl-, 13-demethyl-13-propyl-, 13-demethyl-, 13-demethyl-14-methyl-, and 14-methylretinal are described.The UV spectra of some geometric isomers of these compounds are discussed.
