Mild acetalisation of mono and dicarbonyl compounds catalysed by titanium tetrachloride. Facile synthesis of β-keto enol ethers

The use of TiCl4, as a catalyst for the acetalisation, at room temperature, of carbonyl compounds is reported. Cyclic ketones and cyclic 1,4-diketones easily afford dimethyl acetals, but cyclic 1,3-diketones give β-keto enol ethers. Additionally, aryl ketones and acyclic ketones failed to react. β-keto aldehydes can be monoprotected either as β-keto enol ethers or β-keto dimethyl acetals depending on the reaction time and catalyst amount. Some mechanistic features are accounted for.

The controlled addition of nucleophiles to (trimethylsilyl)ethynyl ketones provides a facile route to β-ketoacetals, β-alkoxy-α,β-unsaturated ketones or vinylogous amides depending on the choice of reaction conditions.
