Synthesis of β-hydroxymalonates: the direct aldol addition of malonates to aldehydes in the presence of SiCl4 and i-Pr2EtN
摘要:
The direct aldol addition of malonates to aromatic, hetero-aromatic and unsaturated aldehydes leading to beta-hydroxymalonates is described. The stability of these products, the trimethyl silyl protection of the hydroxyl group as well as the role of both SiCl4 and i-Pr2EtN in attaining the final products are also discussed.

mild aldol additions of β-keto esters and malonates to aldehydes are described using two novel protocols in the presence of silicontetrachloride and trimethylchlorosilane, respectively. Scope and limitations of the methods have been discussed. Moreover the stability of the obtained products, trimethylsilyl protection of the hydroxy group, as well as the role of both silicontetrachloride and trimethylchlorosilane
