The direct alpha-bromination of various ketones using trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride and Grignard reagent or magnesium bromide in ether gave the corresponding alpha-bromo ketones in moderate to good yields under mild reaction conditions.
An analytical procedure was developed for regiodistribution analysis of TAG using alpha-MAG prepared by an ethyl magnesium bromide deacylation. In the present communication, the deacylation procedure is shown to lead to representative alpha-MAG, allowing the composition of the native TAG
The reaction of ethyl magnesium bromide and 17 alpha-ethynylestradiol with formaldehyde in the presence of triethyl phosphate or hexamethylphosphoramide gave the 2- and 4-formyl-17 alpha-ethynylestradiol in high yield. Treatment of the formyl derivatives with an alkaline solution of hydrogen peroxide
[Reaction: see text] Low regioselectivity of RMgBr (R = aryl, alkenyl) in the CuCN-catalyzed reaction with 4-cyclopentene-1,3-diol monoacetate is improved by addition of LiCl or MgCl2 to a similar extent as previously obtained with RMgCl (>90:10). The limitation encountered in
Copper mediated allylic substitutions and conjugate additions to geranyl, cinnamyl and allylic indole compounds have been investigated with the aim of finding a method for the creation of the all-carbon quaternary centre present in the natural product lyngbyatoxin A. Reaction
