Abstract

Reactions of methyl and ethyl hetaryl ketones in the CCl4/solid KOH system in the presence of 18 crown-6 at room temperature yield the corresponding 2-hetaryl-2-trichloromethyloxiranes in 8–22% yields. Reactions of sterically hindered ketones of the type (hetaryl)COCHR2 (R = Me, Et) with CCl4/OH- form the corresponding α-hydroxy ketones of the type (hetaryl)COC(OH)R2 in 28–44% yields.
