Pentamethylphenyl (Ph*) ketones: Unique building blocks for organic synthesis

Pentamethylphenyl (Ph*) ketones are rapidly emerging as versatile and useful building blocks for organic synthesis. The ortho-methyl substituents force the aromatic ring to twist out of planarity with the carbonyl, and consequently these molecules display a unique pattern of reactivity which is comp...
