Abstract

Homologation of carbonyl compounds by one-carbon extension 1. and 2. is a useful synthetic method for higher analog carbonyl compounds because they are versatile synthons in organic synthesis. 3 The starting carbonyl compounds are also readily available from various sources. Although several methods have been developed for the one-carbon elongation of carbonyl compounds, there is still a need for a method employing mild reaction conditions and ...
