Abstract
2-(3-Lithiopropyl)- and 2-(3-lithiopropyl)-2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane (2) are prepaned by lithiation of the corresponding chlorinated precursors with lithium naphthalenide at −78°C. The reaction of these masked bishomoenolates with different electrophiles yields the expected monoprotected functional carbonyl compounds (3–12), which can be easily deprotected under acid conditions.
