In present work, the formation of α-hydroxycarboxylic acids have been described from various aromatic aldehydes and ketones via direct electrocarboxylation method with 80-92% of yield without any side product and can be purified by simple recrystallization using sacrificial Mg anode and Pt cathode in an undivided cell, CO2at (1 atm) was continuously bubbled in the cell throughout the reaction using tetrapropylammonium chloride as a supporting electrolyte in acetonitrile. The synthesized compounds obtained in fair to excellent yield with a high level of purity. The characterization of electrocarboxylated compounds was done with spectroscopic techniques like IR, NMR (1H & 13C), mass and elemental analysis.

The development and characterization of enantioselective catalytic kinetic resolution of allylic alcohols through asymmetric isomerization with chiral BINOL derivatives-based alkoxides as bifunctional Br?nsted base catalysts were described in the study. A number of chiral BINOL derivatives-based alkoxides were synthesized, and their structure-enantioselectivity correlation study in asymmetric isomerization identified a promising chiral Br?nsted base catalyst, which afforded various chiral secondary allylic alcohols (ee up to 99%, S factor up to >200). In the mechanistic study, alkoxide species were identified as active species and the phenol group of BINOL largely affected the high reactivity and enantioselectivity via hydrogen bonding between the chiral Br?nsted base catalyst and substrates. The strategy is the first successful synthesis strategy of various chiral secondary allylic alcohols through enantioselective transition-metal-free base-catalyzed isomerization. The applicability of the strategy had been demonstrated by the synthesis of the bioactive natural product (+)-veraguensin.
