O–H insertion reaction of diazo compounds is reported. This synthetic method, unlike conventional pathways, does not rely on transition metals, Lewis acids, or Brønsted acids; does not use any catalyst; and produces valuable α-hydroxy and α-alkoxy esters in good yields of up to 98%. The protocol exhibits a broad substrate scope and good functional-group tolerance. Notably, a gram-scale synthesis has
报道了可见光诱导的重氮化合物的 O-H 插入反应。与传统途径不同,这种合成方法不依赖于过渡金属、路易斯酸或布朗斯台德酸;不使用任何催化剂;并以高达 98% 的良好收率生产有价值的 α-羟基和 α-烷氧基酯。该协议具有广泛的底物范围和良好的功能组耐受性。值得注意的是,已经以光化学连续流动模式进行了克级合成。
