Article Synopsis
- The Furakawa-variant of the Simmons-Smith reagent transforms β-dicarbonyls into a zinc enolate through a homologation reaction.
- This zinc enolate can then react with different acylating agents to yield products containing both γ-dicarbonyl and β-dicarbonyl groups.
- Subsequently, treating the acylated product with extra zinc carbenoid leads to a second specific homologation reaction.
