Abstract
Tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) was found to be an effective re ductant of chlorodifluoromethylated ketones 1-3. The generated alpha,a lpha-difluoroacetyl anion was trapped with several aldehydes 4-7, unde r mild conditions, to give the corresponding 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxy ke tone derivatives 8-13, in moderate yields.
