Different policies were created to solve this issue, and Carson refused to stop if one step didn’t work. After using 4 equivalents of LHMDS at-78C in THF and getting extremely low desired yield, Carson is quoted as saying ,“You’d have to be kind of stupid to look at that and not realize that that’s a failure and say we just didn’t do enough of it.” So he altered his experimental to get higher yield by using catalytic hydrogenation.
