Unusual reaction of aryldiazoacetates with enamines: highly effective synthesis of γ-ketoesters
摘要:
The reaction of aryldiazoacetates with enamines catalyzed by copper and rhodium complexes provided gamma-ketoesters in good yields. Careful analysis of the crude reaction mixture revealed a substituted enamine as the primary product, which was hydrolyzed over silica gel to give a gamma-ketoester as the final product. A reaction mechanism involving nucleophilic addition of an enamine to a metal carbene and subsequent hydrogen transfer was proposed. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The reaction of aryldiazoacetates with enamines catalyzed by copper and rhodium complexes provided γ-keto esters in good yields. A full investigation of the effects of solvents, catalysts, enamines and aryldiazoacetates on the reaction was carried out. Careful analysis of the crude reaction mixture revealed a substituted enamine as the primary product, which was hydrolyzed over silica gel to give a
