Abstract

R-Nitro ketones are useful intermediates in organic synthesis. 2 This is mainly because the proton R to the nitro group is fairly acidic and can be easily removed under mild conditions, thus permitting CC bond formation. 3 After CC bond formation, the nitro group can be reductively4 removed using n-Bu3SnH, thereby leading to the formation of nitro-free compounds. On the other hand, the NO2 group can either be converted into an amino ...
