Abstract
The cycloalkanones (I) are coupled with the lithium alkylselenide (II) to give the selenenylated alcohols (III) which undergo carbene insertion induced by different methods to produce the homologous cycloalkanones (IV) and (V).
ChemInform Abstract
The cycloalkanones (I) are coupled with the lithium alkylselenide (II) to give the selenenylated alcohols (III) which undergo carbene insertion induced by different methods to produce the homologous cycloalkanones (IV) and (V). In the same manner, the cyclohexanol (VI) is converted to the cycloheptanone (VII) and the isopropenylcyclohexanol (VIII).
