Lewis Acid-catalysed Reactions of Aryl Cyclopropyl Ketones. Scope and Mechanism

The effects of aryl substituents on the stannic chloride-catalysed cyclisation of aryl cyclopropyl ketones (1) to aryl tetralones (2) are consistent with the formation of a benzyl carbocation intermediate (8) or a cyclic oxonium ion intermediate (12).The

TRAPPING THE INTERMEDIATE INVOLVED IN THE INTRAMOLECULAR CYCLISATION OF CYCLOPROPYL KETONES. A CONVENIENT PREPARATION OF OPEN-CHAIN γ-HYDROXY KETONES.

The concerted mechanism for the stannic chloride catalysed cyclisation of aryl cyclopropyl ketones is disproved by trapping the intermediate.The reaction provides a facile route to γ-hydroxyketones.
