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.

We herein report two complementary strategies employing organolithium chemistry for the synthesis of glyoxal derivatives. Micro-mixer technology allows for the generation of unstable organometallic intermediates and their instantaneous in-line quenching with esters as electrophiles. Selective mono-addition was observedviaputative stabilized tetrahedral intermediates. Advantages offered by flow chemistry technologies facilitate direct and efficient access to masked 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds while mitigating undesired by-product formation. These two approaches enable the production of advanced and valuable synthetic building blocks for heterocyclic chemistry with throughputs of grams per minute.

A novel and efficient oxidative esterification for the selective synthesis of α-ketoesters and esters has been developed under metal-free conditions. In the protocol, various α-ketoesters and esters are available in high yields from commercially available ketones and potassium xanthates. Mechanistic studies have proven that potassium xanthate not only promotes oxidative esterification but also provides an alkoxy moiety for the reaction, which involves the cleavage and reconstruction of C-O bonds.

A novel P(NMe2)3-mediated tandem (1 + 4) annulation between aroylformates and δ-tosylamino enones has been developed that affords a facile synthesis of functionalized pyrrolidines in moderate to excellent yields with exclusive chemoselectivity and high diastereoselectivity. Mechanistic investigation reveals that the reaction proceeds through an unprecedented P(NMe2)3-mediated reductive amination/base-catalyzed Michael addition cascade. The reaction herein also represents the first study of the reactivity patterns of the Kukhtin-Ramirez adducts toward ambiphilic nucleophile-electrophiles.

The α-oxoesterification of the CC double bond in readily available enaminones enabling efficient synthesis of α-ketoesters is developed. The reactions showing general tolerance to the reactions of primary and secondary alcohols proceed well under air via Rose Bengal (RB)-based photocatalysis. Particularly, this mild synthetic method has been discovered to tolerate various polyhydroxylated substrates such as phenolic alcohol, diols and triols with an excellent selectivity of mono-oxoesterification. What is more noteworthy is that α-ketoester functionalized 16-dehydropregnenolone acetate resulting from the elaboration on a natural product has been obtained practically.
Controllable chemoselectivity in the coupling of bromoalkynes with alcohols under visible-light irradiation without additives: Synthesis of propargyl alcohols and α-ketoesters

The chemoselectivity of visible-light-induced coupling reactions of bromoalkynes with alcohols can be controlled by simple changes to the reaction atmosphere (N2 or O2). A N2 atmosphere favours propargyl alcohols via a direct C-C coupling process, whereas an O2 atmosphere results in the generation of α-ketoesters through the oxidative CC/C-O coupling pathway.

An efficient and viable synthesis of α-ketoesters from alkyl halides and α-carbonyl aldehydes has been reported under metal-free conditions. The present method involves oxidative esterification of α-carbonyl aldehydes with alkyl halide using TBAI as a promoter and TBHP as an oxidant to form α-ketoesters in good to excellent yields with versatile structural diversity. Use of commercially accessible and inexpensive substrates, broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance are the key features of this protocol.

Cyclohexanone monooxygenases (CHMOs) show very high catalytic specificity for natural Baeyer–Villiger (BV) reactions and promiscuous reduction reactions have not been reported to date. Wild-type CHMO from Acinetobacter sp. NCIMB 9871 was found to possess an innate, promiscuous ability to reduce an aromatic α-keto ester, but with poor yield and stereoselectivity. Structure-guided, site-directed mutagenesis drastically improved the catalytic carbonyl-reduction activity (yield up to 99 %) and stereoselectivity (ee up to 99 %), thereby converting this CHMO into a ketoreductase, which can reduce a range of differently substituted aromatic α-keto esters. The improved, promiscuous reduction activity of the mutant enzyme in comparison to the wild-type enzyme results from a decrease in the distance between the carbonyl moiety of the substrate and the hydrogen atom on N5 of the reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) cofactor, as confirmed using docking and molecular dynamics simulations.

Stereospecific nucleophilic substitution was achieved for the first time with arylboronic acids as nucleophiles. This transition-metal-free coupling between chiral α-aryl-α-mesylated acetamides and arylboronic acids provided access to a series of chiral α,α-diaryl acetamides with excellent enantioselectivity and moderate to good yields. The CONH functionality proved to be crucial for bridging the reactants and promoting the reaction. Efficient syntheses of a cannabinoid CB1 receptor ligand, the antidepressant (S)-diclofensine, and a key chiral building block of the inhibitor implitapide were successfully accomplished by using this method.

Asymmetric hydrogenation of various α-substituted acrylic acids was carried out using RuPHOX-Ru as a chiral catalyst under 5 bar H2, affording the corresponding chiral α-substituted propanic acids in up to 99% yield and 99.9% ee. The reaction could be performed on a gram-scale with a relatively low catalyst loading (up to 5000 S/C), and the resulting product (97%, 99.3% ee) can be used as a key intermediate to construct bioactive chiral molecules. The asymmetric protocol was successfully applied to an asymmetric synthesis of dihydroartemisinic acid, a key intermediate required for the industrial synthesis of the antimalarial drug artemisinin.
