Formal Transesterification Reaction of But-3-enyl Esters Enabled by a Synergistic Nickel/Zinc Relay
The transition metal-catalyzed coupling reaction has renewed the role of ester as an electrophilic partner. In this context, we describe a synergistic Ni/Zn-catalyzed formal transesterification reaction of but-3-enyl esters with tetrahydrofuran and alkyl iodides to give 4-alkoxylbutyl esters. The aromatic and aliphatic esters are both competent electrophiles and thus broaden the substrate scope of esters in coupling reactions, because the electrophiles in previously reported work were strictly limited to aromatic ones. Mechanistic studies reveal that the C(acyl)–O bond or even more inert C(alkyl)–O bond of esters could be cleaved under nickel catalysis. Two catalytic cycles are proposed, which represent a new reaction pathway versus the traditional transesterification.
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.
