Ketones can be generated from secondary alcohols by converting the latter into quinaldine ethers followed by irradiation (>320 nm).The quinaldine ethers can therefore be utilized as latent carbonyl groups.The quinaldine group is chemically inert during transformations at other parts of the molecule involving hydroboration, Grignard reagents, LiAlH4, as well as bromine or ozone. Key Words: Ketone formation, photochemical; Protecting group
