Abstract

Hydride reduction of dibromoketones $RCOCHBr_2$ $(R=Ph, CMe_3)$ gave $RCH(OH)CHBr_2$, which, when treated with KOH in $CCl_4$, gave aldehydes RCHBrCHO via intermediate bromoepoxides I. Grignard dialkylation of $Cl_2CHCOCl$ gave chloroalcs. $Cl_2CHCR_{12}OH$ $(II, R_1=Me, Ph, PhCH_2)$ in 85-96% yields. Similar rearrangement of II with KOH in $CCl_4$ gave the corresponding chloroaldehydes $R_{12}CClCHO$.
