By using a charcoal supported nano Cu0catalyst (Cu/C), a highly efficient oxidation of α-diazo esters to α-ketoesters with molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant has been developed. In the presence of the Cu/C catalyst, 2-aryl-α-diazo esters with both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups can be oxidized to the corresponding α-ketoesters efficiently. Furthermore, this Cu/C catalyst can catalyse the reaction of aryl α-diazo ester with water to form aryl ketoester, 2-aryl-2-hydroxyl acetate ester and 2-aryl acetate ester. In this case, water is split by α-diazo ester, and the diazo group is displaced by the oxygen or hydrogen atom in water. Mechanistic investigation showed that the reaction of α-diazo ester with oxygen proceeds through a radical pathway. In the presence of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl piperidine nitrogen oxide, the reaction of α-diazo ester with oxygen is dramatically inhibited. Furthermore, the reaction of α-diazo ester with water is investigated by an isotopic tracer method, and GCMS detection showed that a disproportionation reaction occurred between α-diazo ester and water.

Highly efficient catalyst free methods for the synthesis of α-hydroxy-β-oxophosphonates and α-oxoesters have been described. The existence of a 2-oxo group in α-oxoaldehydes is a key factor in promoting the reaction of the tervalent phosphite form towards 2-oxoaldehydes in the synthesis of α-hydroxy-β-oxophosphonates. The in situ activated α-C-H atom of α-hydroxy-β-oxophosphonates sustains aerobic intramolecular nucleophilic displacement in a curious way to produce α-oxoester.

A facile and efficient method for the synthesis of α-ketoesters from alcohols and α-carbonyl aldehydes has been developed at room temperature under metal-free conditions for the first time. Various alcohols and α-carbonyl aldehydes could participate in this reaction to afford the desired products in excellent yields. the Partner Organisations 2014.
Enantio- and chemoselective Br?nsted-acid/Mg(nBu) 2 catalysed reduction of α-keto esters with catecholborane

The first enantio- and chemoselective Br?nsted-acid catalysed reduction of α-keto esters with catecholborane has been developed. The α-hydroxy esters were obtained under mild reaction conditions in virtually quantitative yields and excellent enantioselectivities. With slight modifications both enantiomers can be obtained without any loss of selectivity. This journal is the Partner Organisations 2014.
