Abstract: The present invention provides methods for the synthesis of ketones involving a Ni/Zr-mediated coupling reaction. The Ni/Zr-mediated ketolization reactions can be used in the synthesis of halichondrins (e.g., halichondrin A, B, C; homohalichondrin A, B, C; norhalichondrin A, B, C), and analogs thereof. Therefore, the present invention also provides synthetic methods useful for the synthesis of halichondrins, and analogs thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed is a nucleic acid amplification method. The method comprises: performing a first nucleic acid amplification using a target nucleic acid contained in a sample as a template; and performing a second nucleic acid amplification using the amplification product produced in the first nucleic acid amplification step as a template. In the first nucleic acid amplification, a DNA polymerase that selectively amplifies a nucleic acid not comprising a uracil base is used to produce an amplification product that does not comprise a uracil base. In the second nucleic acid amplification, (i) dUTP and/or a primer comprising a uracil base, and (ii) a DNA polymerase capable of amplifying a nucleic acid comprising a uracil base are used to produce an amplification product that comprises a uracil base.
