Tosylates and mesylates were directly converted into the corresponding nitroalkanes, by their treatment with tetrabutylammonium nitrite (TBAN) under mild conditions.

The reaction of various secondary nitro compounds with 1.1 equivalents of potassium hydride in 1,4-dioxane and then with 0.10 equivalent of chlorotrimethylsilane gave the corresponding ketones in 62-90% yields. By a similar strategy, poly(1,3-diketones) were synthesized directly from nitroalkenes with sodium ethoxide, potassium hydride, and chlorotrimethylsilane in 1,4-dioxane. The use of chlorotrimethylsilane in a catalytic amount was the key to the success of this transformation; the use of an excess of chlorotrimethylsilane led to poor yields for the same reactions.

Open-chain (2-nitropropane, -butane, -pentane, -hexane) and cyclic (nitrocyclopentane, -hexane) secondary nitroalkanes (1) were doubly deprotonated with one equivalent each of n- and t-butyllithium in THF/HMPT or DMPU.Bis(lithiooxy)enamines (2, dianion de
