Abstract:Reactions of organo-metal compounds O 0350Reformatsky Reaction of Methyl 1-Bromocycloalkanecarboxylates with α-Dicarbonyl Compounds. -The Reformatsky reaction of carboxylates (II) with oxoacetaldehydes (I) proceeds at both carbonyl groups of (I). It is accompanied by a double intramolecular cyclization leading to the fused spiro bis-lactones (III). Oxoacetaldehyde (IV) reacts with (II) only at the aldehyde carbonyl group due to the steric hindrance of the ortho-methyl substituent. The reaction of compounds (II… Show more
