1,4-Diketones have been prepared by aldol condensation of methyl ketones with α-bromo ketones in the presence of tert-butoxymagnesium or diethylamido magnesium bromide and subsequent rearrangement of the formed 4-bromo-3-hydroxy ketones under the action of triethylamine.

α-bromoketones - magnesium bases - aldol condensation - activated cyclopropanes - 1,4-diketones
