Organo cerium reagents in organic chemistry: General method of synthesis of alkyl substituted 1,3-diols by RLi-CeCl3 addition to β-hydroxyketones

Organocerium compounds (RLi-CeCl3) are able to transfer an alkyl group to the carbonylic function of a β-hydroxyketone giving alkyl substituted 1,3-diols in excellent yields. The use of these not sophisticated reagents is essential to depress u

β-Substituted Organolithium Compounds; Direct Preparation and Reactivity

Very reactive organolithium compounds bearing an alkoxide function at the β-position with respect to the metal are obtained by direct metallation with lithium naphthalenide at low temperature of the corresponding lithium chlorohydrin salt; the reaction of these dianions with different electrophilic agents leads to the corresponding mono- and bi-functionalized compounds.
