Thiol esters and boronic acids react to produce ketones under aerobic conditions in the presence of catalytic quantities of a CuI or CuII salt. The reaction occurs at reasonable rates between room temperature and 50 °C at neutral pH using thiol esters derived from bulky 2° amides of thiosalicylamides such as those based on N-tert-butyl-2-mercaptobenzamide. In this mechanistically unprecedented reaction system, the carbon-carbon bond formation occurs through templating of the thiol ester and the boronic acid at copper; the system is rendered catalytic in copper under the aerobic conditions.

CHEMOSELECTIVE PROTECTION OF HETEROAROMATIC ALDEHYDES AS IMIDAZOLIDINE DERIVATIVES. PREPARATION OF 5-SUBSTITUTED FURAN- AND TIOPHENE-2-CARBOXALDEHYDES VIA METALLO-IMIDAZOLIDINE INTERMEDIATES

Furan-, tiophene- and N-methylpyrrole-2-carboxaldehydes may be transformed into the corresponding N,N'-dimethylimidazolidines in a reaction not requiring acid catalysis.The resulting furan and tiophene (but not N-methylpyrrole) derivatives may be metallated in high yields and the carboxaldehyde functionality regenerated under very mild conditions.Treatment of the aldehydoketone 2-acetyl-5-formylthiophene with N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine gives only the product of reaction at the aldehyde function thus establishing this methodology as a potentially valuable method for the protection of an aldehyde in the presence of a ketone.
