Abstract

Abstract: Addition of tetrahydrothiophene (THT) to a THF solution of bis (iodozincio) methane modified the stability and reactivity: EXAFS analysis indicated that THT stabilizes bis (iodozincio) methane in a monomeric structure; the species reacts with acyl chlorides to give 1, 3-diketones. Key words: zinc, 1, 3-diketone, dimetal, THT, EXAFS
