Bonding ketones

Birch s procedure for tropone synthesis appears to be widely applicable to 2,3- or 2,5-dihydroanisole derivatives which are readily obtained by reduction of appropriate aromatic methyl ethers by alcoholic metal-ammonia solutions. " Additional functional groups reactive to dibromocarbene or sensitive to base such as double bonds, ketones and esters would need to be protected or introduced subsequent to the expansion steps. 

Although the fluoride anion is not a good leaving group (because of the great strength of the C-F bond), ketones, imines and jS-fluoroesters easily afford this S-elimination reaction (Fig. 22) [77], The S-elimination process remains efficient for CF2 and CF3 compounds, while the C-F bond is stronger. Indeed, fluorine atoms render more acidic the a proton, which makes easier the formation of the anion. 

Af-(2-Chloro-l,l,2-trifluoroethyl)-/V,/V-diethylamine (2) is unreactive to most other functionalities, for example, C = C and C = C bonds, ketones, esters, and amides and due to this high selectivity it has found a wide range of applications, in particular for the preparation of fluo-rinated steroids (see Table 2). 

Tris(diethyl)amino]phosphoniuni 2,2,3,3,4,4-hexafluorocyclobutane ylide (2) is a very hydroscopic solid, which is stable for long periods of time when stored under anhydrous conditions.13 It is unreactive towards most functional groups such as C = C bonds, ketones, aldehydes, and esters but reacts smoothly under neutral conditions with alcohols or carboxylic acids with replacement of the hydroxy group by a fluorine atom.44,45 Other tris(dialkylammo-nium)phosphonium perfluorocyclobutanes have been synthesized however, they are less reactive fluorinating reagents.44,45... 

The hydrogenation of the carbonyl group can, in principle, proceed in two ways (Scheme 9) by the addition of adsorbed hydrogen to the C=0 bond (ketonic mechanism), or by the addition of adsorbed hydrogen to the C=C bond of the enol form (enolic mechanism). Deuteration appears to be a good method to distinguish the two mechanisms the ketonic mechanism would give rise to a C(l)—D bond, whereas the enolic mechanism...

Because of this hydrogen bonding, ketones and aldehydes are good solvents for polar hydroxylic substances such as alcohols. They are also relatively soluble in water. Table 18-3 shows that acetaldehyde and acetone are miscible (soluble in all proportions) with water. Other ketones and aldehydes with up to four carbon atoms are fairly soluble in water. These solubility properties are similar to those of ethers and alcohols, which also engage in hydrogen bonding with water.

An interesting feature is that the reductive desulfonylation can be carried out in the presence of thioethers and no desulfurization is observed (Eq. 69).125 This reagent also tolerates isolated and conjugated double bonds, ketones, acetals, and Boc carbamates. Sulfonamides, however, are not tolerated, and even at low reaction temperatures give the corresponding amines. 3-Elimination of arylsulfinates is also observed (Eq. 70).126... 

Many substituents are tolerated by these reagents, including isolated double bonds, ketones and two 6-substituents on the unsaturated ester function, a feature which often prevents Michael additions. 

Reduction. The selective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to the amines by using PdCl and a water-soluble phosphine ligand with CO in aqueous NaOH and xylene does not affect other functional groups, such as double bond, ketone, nitrile, and halide groups.

Alkanes are hydrocarbons containing only C and H and have all single bonds. Ketones contain a C=0 group. 

The most common type of reduction reaction over solid supports is hydrogenation [98, 99]. However, as this class of reaction involves hydrogen in the gas phase, it does not fall within the bounds of this chapter. In liquid phase processes the most widely investigated type of reaction is the reduction of compounds containing carbon-oxygen double bonds. Ketones and aldehydes are readily reduced by a number of methods using solid catalysts or supported reagents [100]. 

The difficulties surrounding the oxidation of ketones stand in stark contrast to the ease of oxidation of aldehydes. Although the major observable difference between aldehydes and ketones is the replacement of the hydrogen-carbon bond at the carbon of the carbonyl with a carbon-carbon bond and although (Table 1.1) C-H bonds are stronger than carbon-carbon bonds, ketones fail to undergo...
