Some long chain α-aryl α-diazo ketones under Rh catalysis cyclize efficiently to the corresponding cyclohexanones. This is in marked contrast to the cyclizations of α-diazo β-ketoesters, which consistently deliver cyclopentanone products.

Electrooxidation of α-phenyl substituted β-hydroxy sulfides in dichloromethane in the presence of chloride ions as the electrolyte results in a novel pinacol-type rearrangement to give 2-phenyl substituted ketones like 2-phenylcycloalkanone as the ring expansion product. The rearrangement is induced by an electrogenerated chloronium ion, which effects, instead of common C-C scission, a selective C-S cleavage of β-hydroxy sulfides.
