Abstract
Diastereoselective intramolecular aldol condensations are investigated in an experimental and computational study of 1, 6-diketones. Ab initio results show the importance of the acid medium and disapprove the possibility of a spontaneous cyclization, even for silylated compounds. The combination of both experimental and computational approaches brings valuable information on the mechanism and on the selectivity of the aldol reaction. It is ...
