Self-condensation of activated malonic acid half esters: A model for the decarboxylative Claisen condensation in polyketide biosynthesis
Ryu, Youngha,Scott, A. Ian

The reaction of a malonic acid half oxyester with a N-hydroxysuccinimidyl ester-forming reagent resulted in self-condensation to provide the corresponding 1,3-acetonedicarboxylic acid diester. This new method does not require a divalent metal chelator or a coordinating solvent for successful condensation.
REMOTE SUBSTITUENT EFFECTS IN MICROBIAL REDUCTIONS OF 3-KETOGLUTARATE AND 3-KETOADIPATE ESTERS

The enantioselectivity of yeast mediated reductions of prochiral 3-ketoglutarate and 3-ketoadipate esters to the corresponding 3-hydroxyesters can be influenced by simple differences in the ester groups.
