Abstract
In this paper, we report that the use of an alkyl silyl carbonate reagent combined with CsF and 18-crown-6 facilitates efficient direct carboxylations of (hetero)aromatic C–H bonds. This system also enables benzylic carboxylation of a toluene derivative and double carboxylation of methyl heteroarene. The carbonate reagent is characterized by its ease of handling and storage. Moreover, we demonstrate the application of this system in 13C-labeling experiments.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
