Kantorowski, Eric J.,Borhan, Babak,Nazarian, Saman,Kurth, Mark J.
, p. 2483 - 2486 (2007/10/03)
Radical-mediated ring expansion methodology is presented wherein 7- membered carbocycles can be prepared from the corresponding xanthate derivatives of bicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-1-methanol. In certain systems, an intermediate cycloheptyl radical appears to be
A Simple Method for Producing Cycloalkenyllithiums from Cycloalkanones via Reductive Lithiation of Enol Phenyl Thioethers
Cohen, Theodore,Doubleday, Mary Dosch
, p. 4784 - 4786 (2007/10/02)
Cyclohexenyl, cycloheptenyl, and cyclooctenyl phenyl sulfides, readily prepared from the corresponding cycloalkanones, are reductively lithiated by lithium p,p'-di-tert-butylbiphenylide to produce cycloalkenyllithiums in good yields.
