Abstract

Abstract Results are reported on the regioselective C-deuteration of a series of related acyclic and exocyclic enolates derived from substituted aryl ketones. We comment on factors, such as the presence of additives and the structural nature of the enolate, that influence the observed C-deuteration and discuss the role of the deuterium donor.(© Wiley- VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
