Efficient Conversion of Sulfones into β-Keto Sulfones by N-Acylbenzotriazoles
摘要:
Acyclic sulfones 4a-f and alicyclic sulfone 7 react with readily available N-acylbenzotriazoles 3a-g (derived from aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic carboxylic acids) to provide the corresponding beta-keto sulfones 5a-n and 8a-c, respectively, in good to excellent yields.
