Abstract
AbstractA practical and general Reformatsky reaction, promoted by oxidants and mediated by dimethylzinc, is described. The reaction is fast and runs at 0 °C with aldehydes and ketones, under mild reaction conditions. Preliminary results obtained for the enantioselective version show that inexpensive chiral amino alcohols could be used in the challenging formation of enantioenriched quaternary stereogenic centers.
