Abstract
A tandem cross-coupling reaction of ketones with aldehydes has been achieved using barium hydride or isopropoxide as a promoter, in which barium enolates are generated in situ and then three successive reactions (aldol reaction-β-elimination-Michael addition) follow; this one-pot process is effective for obtaining symmetrical 1,5-diketones in good yields.

References and Notes
We examined catalytic activity of NaOi-Pr, KOi-Pr, and Mg(Oi-Pr)2 in the present reaction, however, these metal isopropoxides were found to be less effective, [M(Oi-Pr)n, equiv, time, yield]: NaOi-Pr, 0.4 equiv, 4 h, 40%; KOi-Pr, 0.4 equiv, 4 h, 35%; Mg(Oi-Pr)2, 0.2 equiv, 18 h, <1%.

Typical Procedure for Tandem Cross-Coupling Reaction of Ketones with Aldehydes Catalyzed by Barium Isopropoxide: Synthesis of 1,3,5-Triphenylpentane-1,5-dione (Entry 2 in Table 3).
An oven-dried, 30 mL two-necked round-bottomed flask equipped with a Teflon®-coated magnetic stirring bar was flushed with argon. Then, Ba(Oi-Pr)2 (26 mg, 0.10 mmol) was put into the apparatus and covered with dry DMF (5 mL) and i-PrOH (1.5 mL, 20 mmol), and the mixture was stirred for 10 min at r.t. To the resulting solution were added acetophenone (0.35 mL, 3.0 mmol) and benzaldehyde (0.10 mL, 1.0 mmol). After being stirred for 7 h at r.t., the mixture was treated with a sat. aq NH4Cl solution (10 mL) at this temperature and the aqueous layer was extracted with Et2O (20 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over anhyd Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo after filtration. The residual crude product was purified by column chromatog-raphy on silica gel to give the 1,5-diketone (0.25 g, 76% yield) as colorless crystals.
