Abstract

The treatment of α-haloketones with 1.5 equiv. of Zn and 1 equiv. of NH4Cl in ethanol for 0.5 min gave the corresponding ketones with excellent yields under microwave irradiation. Vic-dibromides and 2,2-dibromoacetophenone can be efficiently debrominated to alkenes and acetophenones, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
