An efficient one-pot synthetic pathway for the preparation of homoallylichalides by in situ generated MgBrCl-promoted ring opening of cyclopropylcarbinyl acetates has been established. An easily accessible one-pot synthetic protocol of 1,3-butadienes by the elimination of hydrogen halides from the resulting homoallylichalides in the presence of an excess amount of strong base has also been developed

esters and lactones have long been thought to lie outside the reducing range of SmI(2), activation of the lanthanide reagent by H(2)O allows some of these substrates to be manipulated in an unprecedented fashion. For example, the SmI(2)-H(2)O reducing system shows complete selectivity for the reduction of 6-membered lactones over other classes of lactones and esters. The kinetics of reduction has been
