Due to their closely matched reactivity, the coupling of two dissimilar ketone enolates to form a 1,4-diketone remains a challenge in organic synthesis. We herein report that umpolung of a ketone trimethylsilyl enol ether (1 equiv) to form a discrete enolonium species, followed by addition of as little as 1.2-1.4 equivalents of a second trimethylsilyl enol ether, provides an attractive solution to
由于它们紧密匹配的反应性,两个不同的酮烯醇酸酯的偶联形成1,4-二酮仍然是有机合成中的挑战。我们在本文中报道酮三酮甲
硅烷基烯醇醚(1当量)的形成形成离散的烯醇,随后加入低至1.2-1.4当量的第二三甲基甲
硅烷基烯醇醚,为该问题提供了有吸引力的解决方案。可以使用各种各样的烯醇化物以1%至38%至74%的产率形成1,4-二酮产物。由于使用了两种TMS烯醇醚作为前体,因此交叉偶联的优化应包括研究添加顺序。
