A CONVENIENT METHOD FOR THE DIRECT PREPARATION OF KETONES FROM 2-(6-(2-METHOXYETHYL)PYRIDYL) CARBOXYLATES AND ALKYL IODIDES BY USE OF ZINC DUST AND A CATALYTIC AMOUNT OF NICKEL DICHLORIDE

Treatment of 2-(6-(2-methoxyethyl)pyridyl) carboxylates with alkyl iodides in the presence of zinc dust and a catalytic amount of NiCl2 in DMF at 50 deg C affords unsymmetrical ketones in good yields by a one-pot procedure.
