Abstract: Abstract The reductive coupling of phthalic anhydrides with acetone by Zn-TiCl4 in THF gave two-to-one and one-to-one coupled products. The coupled products were transformed to 3,3-diisopropyl-, 3-isopropylidene-, and 3-isopropylphthalides. In addition, the reductive coupling of… read more here.
