Abstract
A new radical addition/C-C bond fragmentation process is reported. Vinyl carbinols derived from 2-methyl-2-phenylpropanal react with radicals generated from xanthates to give the corresponding ketones. The radical cleavage reaction proceeds under mild conditions, in good to high yield, and in the presence of the unprotected carbinol. Highly functionalized 1,5-diketones and pyridines are readily available using this approach.
