Ketones were obtained in good yields by titanocene(II)-promoted reaction of thioacetals with alkanenitriles. The regioselective formation of α-substituted ketone was observed when the reaction was carried out in the presence of methyl iodide or benzyl bro

We report a transition-metal-free coupling of aldehydes and ketones with geminal bis(boron) building blocks which provides the coupled, homologated carbonyl compound upon oxidation. This reaction not only extends an alkyl chain containing a carbonyl group, it also simultaneously introduces a new carbonyl substituent. We demonstrate that enantiopure aldehydes with an enolizable stereogenic center undergo this reaction with complete retention of stereochemistry.
