Herein a well-defined, high-valence cobalt(III)-catalyst was applied for successful α-alkylation of ketones RC(O)CH3 (R = pentamethylphenyl, Ph, naphthalen-2-yl, etc.) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-one with secondary alcs. R1OH (R1 = 1-phenylethyl, cyclopentyl, octan-2-yl, etc.). A wide-variety of secondary alcs., which include cyclic, acyclic, sym., and unsym. compounds, was employed as alkylating agents to produce β-alkyl aryl ketones RC(O)CH2R1 and 2-(1-phenylethyl)-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one.
ChemSusChem published new progress about Alkyl aryl ketones Role: RCT (Reactant), SPN (Synthetic Preparation), RACT (Reactant or Reagent), PREP (Preparation). 403-41-8 belongs to class alcohols-buliding-blocks, and the molecular formula is C8H9FO, Safety of 1-(4-Fluorophenyl)ethyl Alcohol.
