α-Methylation of ketones via manganese-enolates: Absence of undesired polyalkylation
Reetz, Manfred T.,Haning, Helmut
, p. 7395 - 7398 (1993)
The transmetalation of ketone lithium-enolates using MnBr2 generates manganese-enolates which react with CH3I to provide α-methylated ketones with essentially no undesired polyalkylated byproducts.
