An enantioselective epoxidation of α-substituted vinyl ketones was realized to construct the key epoxide intermediates for the synthesis of various triazole antifungal agents. The reaction proceeded efficiently in high yields with good enantioselectivities by employing a chiral N,N′-dioxide/ScIII complex as the chiral catalyst and 35% aq. H2O2 as the oxidant. It enabled the facile transformation for optically active isavuconazole, efinaconazole, and other potential antifungal agents.

As part of a program aimed at metal-catalyzed oxidative transformations of molecules with carbon-metalloid bonds, the synthesis of α-borylated ketones is reported via regioselective TBHP-mediated Wacker-type oxidation of N-methyliminodiacetic acid (MIDA)-protected alkenylboronates. The observed regioselectivity correlates with the hemilabile nature of the B-N dative bond in the MIDA boronate functional group, which allows boron to guide selectivity through a neighboring group effect.
β-Keto esters derived from 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethanol: An orthogonal protective group for β-keto esters
Knobloch, Eva,Brueckner, Reinhard
scheme or table, p. 2229 - 2246 (2009/04/08)
β-Keto esters derived from 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethanol undergo cleavage and decarboxylation when treated with 0.75 equivalents of tetrabutylammonium fluoride trihydrate in tetrahydrofuran at 50°C, while β-keto esters derived from methanol, tert-butyl alcohol, allyl alcohol, or benzyl alcohol stay intact. Conversely, methyl-, tert-butyl-, allyl-, or benzyl β-keto esters can be cleaved and decarboxylated without the 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl β-keto esters being affected. Similarly, mixed bis(β-keto esters) derived from 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethanol and methanol, tert-butyl alcohol, allyl alcohol, or benzyl alcohol can be defunctionalized chemoselectively under the same reaction conditions.
