A General Method for the α-Acyloxylation of Carbonyl Compounds
摘要:
A simple, one-pot method for the alpha-acyloxylation of carbonyl compounds that proceeds at room temperature in the presence of both moisture and air has been developed. Treatment of a variety of aldehydes and both cyclic and acyclic ketones with N-methyl-O-benzoylhydroxylamine hydrochloride provides the alpha-functionalized product in 69-92% isolated yield. The transformation is tolerant of a wide range of functional groups and, significantly, is reglospecific in the discrimination of secondary over primary centers in the case of nonsymmetrical substrates.

synthesis of α-oxygenated carbonylcompounds and catechols is the treatment of a carbonylcompound or a phenol with an electrophilic oxygen source. As an alternative approach to these important structures, formal [3,3]-rearrangements of N-enoxyphthalimides, N-enoxyisoindolinones, and N-aryloxyphthalimides have been explored. When used in combination with an initial Chan-Lam coupling, these transformations
