A combined DFT and NMR investigation of the zinc organometallic intermediate proposed in the syn-selective tandem chain extension-aldol reaction of β-keto esters

The tandem chain extension-aldol (TCA) reaction of β-keto esters provides an α-substituted γ-keto ester with an average syn:anti selectivity of 10:1. It is proposed that the reaction proceeds via a carbon-zinc bound organometallic intermediate potentially bearing mechanistic similarity to the Reformatsky reaction. Evidence, derived from control Reformatsky reactions and a study of the structure of the TCA intermediate utilizing DFT methods and NMR spectroscopy, suggests the γ-keto group of the TCA intermediate plays a significant role in diastereoselectivity observed in this reaction. Such coordination effects have design implications for future zinc mediated reactions.

New pyrrole-based amino acids for the synthesis of peptidomimetic constrained scaffolds

A new family of pyrrole-based amino acids have been prepared through the microwave assisted Paal-Knorr reaction of 1-4 ketoesters derived from the corresponding β-ketoester with a functional homologation. The carboxylic group is located in position 3 of the pyrrole, whereas the amino group, protected with the Cbz moiety, is present on the side chain in positions 1 or 2. These compounds were used to prepare constrained oligopeptides.

Microwave-assisted Paal-Knorr reaction - Three-step regiocontrolled synthesis of polysubstituted furans, pyrroles and thiophenes

An efficient and highly versatile synthesis of furans, pyrroles and thiophenes is described. Starting from commercially available or easily prepared β-keto esters, functional homologation provides differently substituted 1,4-diketones that can be transfor

Microwave-Assisted Paal-Knorr Reaction. A Rapid Approach to Substituted Pyrroles and Furans

(Equation presented) An array of tetrasubstituted pyrroles (and trisubstituted furans) was obtained using a simple three-step procedure. Functional homologation of a β-ketoester with an aldehyde followed by oxidation gave a series of differently substitut

Tandem chain extension-aldol reaction: syn selectivity with a zinc enolate.

A tandem chain extension-aldol reaction was developed in which beta-keto esters are transformed to alpha-substituted-gamma-keto esters in an efficient zinc-mediated, one-pot reaction. The diastereoselectivity of the reaction ranged from good to excellent
