An efficient protocol was developed for the synthesis of tertiary alcohols via nucleophilic addition of organometallic compounds of s-block elements (Grignard and organolithium reagents) to esters performed in the biodegradable choline chloride/urea eutectic mixture or in water. This approach displays a broad substrate scope, with the addition reaction proceeding quickly (20 s reaction time) and cleanly, at ambient temperature and under air, straightforwardly furnishing the expected tertiary alcohols in yields of up to 98%. The practicability of the method is exemplified by the sustainable synthesis of some representative S-trityl-L-cysteine derivatives, which are a potent class of Eg5 inhibitors, also via telescoped one-pot processes.

Inhibition of Eg5 represents a novel approach for the treatment of cancer. Here, we report the synthesis and structure-activity relationship of S-trityl-l-cysteine (STLC) derivatives as Eg5 inhibitors. Some of these derivatives such as 4f demonstrated enh
