Abstract

A CC single-bond-forming reaction from ketones with accompanying CO bond cleavage mediated by a RMgBr or RLi-vanadium (II)-O2 system has been accomplished. Different from conventional reductive coupling reactions of ketones such as the McMurry coupling, the present method forms a CC single (instead of a double) bond and yields a product that contains components derived from the ketone and the alkylating reagent in a one-pot ...
