Hydrodimerization of Cyclic α,β Unsaturated Ketones Promoted by Samarium Iodide.

-The intermolecular coupling of cyclic unsaturated ketones by SmI 2 /THF and SmI 2 /HMPA/THF systems, resp., affords symmetrical hydrodimers in a short reaction time and in good yields. The use of HMPA improves the yields. -(CABRERA, A.;
