More recently, our group has found that diols 206 and 255 are more easily synthetized in quantitative yield by low-valent titanium promoted pinacol coupling of diketones 242 and 254, respectively (unpublished results), but for a general procedure see P.

Later on, we scaled up the reaction and improved the yield just by carrying out the reaction more concentrated

Very recently, we have carried out the trapping of 343 and some related pyramidalized alkenes such as 205b or 368 with several 1,3-dienes such as furan, 2,5-dimethylfuran, 1,3-DPIBF and 282 using sodium amalgam at room temperature or molten sodium in boiling 1,4-dioxane instead of using t-butyllithium at low temperature.
