- Acetylation of β-diketone copper(II) chelates by treatment with ketene
-
A new efficient method for preparation of acyclic α-acetylated β-diketone copper(II) chelates and their corresponding geminal triketones by treatment of starting β-diketone cuprates 1 with ketene is described.

- O-Acylation using organothallium compounds

Thallous salts of β-dicarbonyl compounds, prepared by reaction of the β-dicarbonyl compounds with a thallous alkoxide, are treated with alkyl halides to give C-alkyl products in high yield, with acyl halides at room temperature to give C-acyl products, and with acyl halides at low temperatures to give O-acyl products. Thallous phenolates are esterified with acyl or aroyl halides. Anhydrides are also prepared, as are biaryls and bi-sec-alkyls. N-Heterocyclics, including purines and pyrimidines, are N-alkylated. Lactams are O-acylated or N-alkylated.
