Title: Nickel-catalyzed reductive methylation of alkyl halides and acid chlorides with methyl p-tosylate. Author: Liang Z, Xue W, Lin K, Gong H. Journal: Org Lett; 2014 Nov 07; 16(21):5620-3. PubMed ID: 25333482. Abstract: Methylation of unactivated alkyl halides and acid chlorides under Ni-catalyzed reductive coupling conditions led to efficient formation of methylated alkanes and ketones using methyl p-methyl tosylate as the methylation reagent. Moderate to excellent coupling yields as well as excellent functional group tolerance were observed under the present mild and easy-to-operate reaction conditions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
