The new and highly functionalized copper reagents RCu(CN)ZnI obtained from readily available primary and secondary alkylzinc iodides by a transmetalation in THF with the soluble salt, CuCN-2LiX, react in good yields with acyl chlorides and enones, respectively, to afford ketones and 1,4-addition products.
