It has been demonstrated by means of spectroscopic studies involving cyclizable alkyl halides that lithium dimethylcuprate can react with organichalides by a single electron transfer pathway.

biomass-derived carbonyl compounds is an alternative to condensation chemistry for supplying products with chain length >C6 for biofuels and renewable materials production. Kolbe coupling of biomass-derived levulinicacid is used to obtain 2,7-octanedione, a new platform molecule only two low process-intensity steps removed from raw biomass. Hydrogenation to 2,7-octanediol provides a chiral secondary diol
