Abstract
A method for the opening of cyclopropyl ketones with samarium(II) iodi de followed by the intramolecular trapping of an electrophile is descr ibed. This process leads to the obtainment of functionalized spirocycl ic, bicyclic, and tricyclic ketones in moderate to good yields. (C) 19 97 Elsevier Science Ltd.
