Abstract

Treatment of cyclic tert-trihalomethylcarbinols with CrCl(2) in THF/HMPA in the presence of aryl or aliphatic aldehydes initiates a cascade sequence of one carbon ring expansion-olefination affording conjugated exocyclic ketones. Acyclic tert-trihalomethylcarbinols undergo a comparable cascade of one carbon homologation-olefination.
