Generalized synthesis of [Gamma]-diketones

Various synthetic schemes were explored in order to develop a general synthesis of γ-diketones. The addition of organometallic reagents to several γ-dicarboxylic acids and γ-dinitrile compounds failed to produce any ketonic product, whereas addition to γ-diesters and γ-diacid chlorides gave only sma...
