46. As shown in Table 3, the reaction of 1a with 8a proceeded efficiently irrespective of the metal chloride used. This observation may be due to higher coordinating ability (Lewis basicity) of α-enones, which allows carbonyl activation even with less Lewis acidic metal ions. For the coordinating ability of α-enones, see ref. 17a.
