Ti(III)- and Electrochemically-induced anti-Selective Reformatsky Reactions

摘要

Reduction of an alpha-halo ester or ketone leads to the formation of the corresponding enolate.Reduction has been accomplished in many ways.For example,Fry and Susla reported that the reduction of alpha-bromo-propiophenone in the presence of lanthanum(III) bromide and benzaldehyde leads to a syn-selective aldol condensation.
