Abstract:
Carbonyl compounds reacted with stable phosphonium ylides in D2O to give α-deuterated-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds in the same flask. The chemical yield and deuterium incorporation are excellent under our procedure. The fragile group like ozonide was compatible with our reaction condition.
