✦ Synopsis

Samarium diiodide is an excellent reagent for aldehyde or ketone coupling. With aromatic aldehydes, reactions are very fast with a complete selectivity versus substituents such as cyano, carboxyl or nitro groups.

Propargyl ketones were prepared from aldehydes via an indium-mediated alkynylation reaction followed by an indium-mediated Oppenauer oxidation. They were also obtained via an indium-mediated alkynylation of the relevant acyl chlorides.
