in a one‐pot reaction. In contrast, 1,4‐addition of the dizinc reagent to enones carrying an acyloxy group proceeded very efficiently without any additive. In this case, the product was a 1,3‐diketone, which was generated in a novel tandem reaction. A theoretical/computational study indicates that the whole reaction pathway is exothermic, and that two zinc atoms of bis(iodozincio)methane accelerate each

Treatment of an gamma-acyloxy-alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone with bis(iodozincio)methane leads to a novel tandem reaction consisting of three steps: (1) 1,4-addition of the dizinc reagent to the enone, which affords the corresponding zinc enolate of the beta-zinciomethylated ketone; (2) intramolecular nucleophilic attack by the enolate on the ester group; and (3) Grob-type fragmentation of the adduct
