Abstract

Relatively high concentrations (0.9–1.4 M) of the reagent in DMSO, Py, HMPT were used in order to obtain satisfactory natural abundance 13 C-NMR spectra in a reasonable period of time. Due to the less solubility of the reagent in THF (about 0.4 M at room temperature) spectra in THF were run at 24°C. The Reformatsky intermediate was always prepared in THF solution, isolated and dissolved in the selected solvent to avoid possible side reactions due to the interaction of ...
