Utilization of the deuterium isotope effect to suppress enolization during alkylation of ketones

Abstract
A substantial enhancement in yield is observed in the reaction of enolizable ketones with the lithium salt of N,N-diethylbenzamide and N,N-diethyl-1-naphthamide when the hydrogen atoms α to the carbonyl group are replaced with deuterium.
