Abstract

α, β-Unsaturated carbonyl compounds and esters, cyclopropyl ketones, β-diketones, Schiff's bases, and nitriles were irradiated in several alcohols in the presence of titanium (IV) chloride or uranyl chloride. In the titanium (IV) chloride-catalyzed reactions, the α-carbon atom of the primary alcohols underwent a bond formation, generally with the C= X (or C≡ N) carbon atom of the substrates, while the bond formation occurred on a C= C carbon atom ...
