Abstract
Retraction of ‘CoH-catalyzed radical hydroalkylation of alkenes with 1,3-dicarbonyls’ by Meihui Guan et al., Chem. Commun., 2022, 58, 5265–5268, https://doi.org/10.1039/D2CC01382G.
We, the named authors, hereby wholly retract this Chemical Communications article. Further data confirmed that many of the products of the hydroalkylation reaction were misassigned. After being notified by an expert, we performed additional characterization of the product structures and found that some products starting from cyclic 1,3-diketones and alkenes are hydroxylation products instead of hydroalkylation products. It is necessary to retract this article because the overall hypothesis of the work points to the CoH-catalyzed hydroalkylation reaction of alkenes and 1,3-dicarbonyls to forge the pivotal C(sp3)–C(sp3) bonds.
