1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds including ethyl 2-methylacetoacetate can be efficiently alkylated with enol ethers or enolesters in the presence of manganese(III) acetate. These intermolecular radical addition reactions can be used to form sterically congested quaternary carbon centres in excellent yield (81-97%).

beta-Keto esters and beta-keto amides can be efficiently alkylated on reaction with enol ethers and manganese(III) acetate in the presence of copper(II) acetate. These intermolecular radical addition reactions can be used to construct quaternary carbon centres in excellent yield and this method has been utilised in a diastereoselective approach to substituted pyrrolidinones.
Electroreduction of styrenes or alkyl methacrylates in the presence of aliphatic acid anhydrides or N-acylinnidazoles with an undivided cell equipped with zinc electrodes as the anode and the cathode brought about novel one-pot vicinal double C-acylation to afford the corresponding 1,4-diketones in satisfactory yields.

Chlorine substituents on the alkene control the regioselectivity of the cyclization of 5-hexenyl or 6-heptenyl radicals generated by oxidation of an acetoacetate ester or 1,3-diketone with Mn(OAc)3.2H2O. 6-Exo-cyclization of the radicals obtained by oxidation of benzoylacetone derivatives 10 and 13, containing a chlorine on the terminal double bond carbon, gives alpha-chloroalkyl radicals that add to the aromatic ring to give 11 and 16, respectively. Loss of HCl leads to naphthols 8 and 17 indicating that this reaction may be useful for aureolic acid synthesis. Exo-cyclization is the exclusive process with acetoacetates 28b, 44, 55b, and 59 containing a chlorine on the terminal double bond carbon. 6-Endo-cyclization is the exclusive process with acetoacetates 18c and 51b containing a chlorine on the internal double bond carbon. Intra- and intermolecular competition experiments indicate that these effects are primarily steric. The chlorine substituent controls the regioselectivity of the cyclization by sterically hindering attack of the radical on the chlorine bearing double bond carbon thereby retarding formation of the beta-chloroalkyl radical. The chlorine substituent does not electronically accelerate attack on the other end of the double bond to give the alpha-chloroalkyl radical.
