Various carboxylic acids were directly transformed into the corresponding ketones by utilizing organozinc ate complexes, which provide high chemoselectivity without any overreaction to the undesired tertiary carbinol, owing to formation of a stable tetrahedral zincioketal intermediate. This method offers good overall atom/step/pot economy and operational simplicity.
利用有机锌酸酯络合物将各种羧酸直接转化为相应的酮,由于形成了稳定的四面体锌碘酮中间体,该络合物可提供高化学选择性,而不会与不希望的叔甲醇发生任何反应。该方法提供了良好的总体原子/步骤/罐经济性和操作简便性。
