Ring expansion reaction via homolytic pathways
- Abstract:
-
The preparation of carbocyclic medium rings by two electron processes is reviewed with particular reference to the synthesis of natural products. The formation of medium rings by oxidative and homolytic methods is also reviewed.
The synthesis and behaviour of both cis- and tran- ring expansion precursors is described. The 1,4-addition of tributylstannyl lithium to a range of cyclic α,β-unsaturated ketones was performed and procedures found whereby the so-formed en...
