Ketones are an important class of molecules in synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Rapid and modular synthesis of ketones remains in high demand. Described here is a nickel-catalyzed three-component reductive carbonylation method for the synthesis of dialkyl ketones. A wide range of both symmetric and asymmetric dialkyl ketones can be accessed from alkyl halides and a safe CO source, ethyl chloroformate. The approach offers complementary substrate scope to existing carbonylation methods while avoiding the use of either toxic CO or metal carbonyl reagents.
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.
