Abstract
The alpha-oxygenation of ketones via acid-driven TEMPO
disproportionation
is reported. This straightforward and robust protocol from simple
starting materials exhibits an excellent substrate scope in terms
of scaffold substitutions, selectivity, and functional group tolerance,
with substrate limitations elucidated and highlighted. Furthermore,
the mechanism was probed by way of UV–visible spectroscopy,
deuterium scrambling experiments, kinetic isotope effect, and Hammett
analysis to illustrate the reaction dynamics.
