1,4-Diketones have been prepared in one step from methyl ketones and α-bromomethyl ketones under the action of ZnCl2 · t-BuOH · Et2NR as a condensation agent with moderate to high yields. The mechanistic pathway of the reaction is proposed to go through aldol condensation of ketones followed by 1,3-dehydrobromination of aldol products and cleavage of activated cyclopropyl intermediates.
