title: Samarium(II)-mediated linker cleavage-cyclization in fluorous synthesis: reactions of samarium enolates.
abstract: SmI2 has been used to cleave a sulfur linker and trigger cyclizations in strategies for the traceless fluorous synthesis of N-heterocycles. The studies give further insights into the reactivity of samarium enolates.
