The chromium Reformatsky reaction: Access to adjacent quarternary centers
Wessjohann, Ludger,Wild, Harry
, p. 512 - 514 (1997)
α-Bromo ketones, -esters and -nitriles react with chromium dichloride and ketones in a Barbier-type reaction to yield the kinetic crossed aldol products with one or two new quarternary centers. The reaction does not require special activation of the reage
A NEW ALDOL REACTION VIA CERIUM ENOLATES
Imamoto, Tsuneo,Kusumoto, Tetsuo,Yokoyama, Masataka
, p. 5233 - 5236 (2007/10/02)
Cerium enolates formed from cerium (III) chloride and lithium enolates undergo aldol reaction with ketones or sterically crowded aldehydes to afford the corresponding β-hydroxyketones in high yields.
