Abstract
A manganese-catalyzed ring-opening coupling reaction of cyclopropanols with enones enables the facile and efficient preparation of a wide array of synthetically important 1,6-diketones bearing manifold functional groups in good yield. These reaction features broad substrate scope, environmentally benign conditions, inexpensive catalyst, and operational simplicity.
