gem-Dialkylation or alkylative reduction of α-unbranched aliphatic aldehydes is easily carried out by replacing the carbonyl oxygen with the gem-dihalide functionality followed by substitution of each halogen (bromine or iodine) by two n-alkyl groups or one sec- or tert-alkyl group and one hydrogen atom using higher-order dialkyl-lithium cyanocuprates.
