Tandem chain extension-aldol reaction: syn selectivity with a zinc enolate.
Lai,Zercher,Jasinski,Reid,Staples
, p. 4169 - 4171 (2001)
A tandem chain extension-aldol reaction was developed in which beta-keto esters are transformed to alpha-substituted-gamma-keto esters in an efficient zinc-mediated, one-pot reaction. The diastereoselectivity of the reaction ranged from good to excellent
Lewis Acid-catalysed Reactions of Aryl Cyclopropyl Ketones. Scope and Mechanism
Murphy, William S.,Wattanasian, Sompong
, p. 1029 - 1036 (2007/10/02)
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.
Murphy, William S.,Wattanasin, Sompong
, p. 3517 - 3520 (2007/10/02)
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.
