摘要

Abstract Recent methods for the synthesis of 1, 4-diketones are briefly reviewed. Zinc and phenacyl bromide in dimethoxyethane afforded 1, 4-diphenylbutane-l, 4-dione in moderate yield, but other solvents or metals examined gave no or a lower yield. The route is unsatisfactoryfor aliphatic 1, 4-diketones. Attempts to use'levulinyl chloride'to acylate olefins or acetylenes were fruitless. Routes involving aldol condensations of hexane-2, 5-dione or ...
