Bis(oxazoline)–Nickel(II)‐Catalyzed Asymmetric Photochemical Hydroxylation of β‐Keto Esters With Nitrones
Nitrones have been extensively employed as electrophiles, 1,3‐dipoles, and radical acceptors in organic chemistry. In contrast, their photochemical transformations, especially in the context of asymmetric catalysis, have remained elusive. Herein we disclose the first enantioselective phototransformation of nitrones for the hydroxylation of β‐keto esters under bis(oxazoline)–Ni(II) catalysis. This photocatalyst‐free method affords chiral α‐hydroxy β‐keto esters in high yields and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 94% yield, 93% ee). This work opens new chemical space for asymmetric photochemistry of nitrones.
期刊介绍:
Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis (ASC) is the leading primary journal in organic, organometallic, and applied chemistry.
The high impact of ASC can be attributed to the unique focus of the journal, which publishes exciting new results from academic and industrial labs on efficient, practical, and environmentally friendly organic synthesis. While homogeneous, heterogeneous, organic, and enzyme catalysis are key technologies to achieve green synthesis, significant contributions to the same goal by synthesis design, reaction techniques, flow chemistry, and continuous processing, multiphase catalysis, green solvents, catalyst immobilization, and recycling, separation science, and process development are also featured in ASC. The Aims and Scope can be found in the Notice to Authors or on the first page of the table of contents in every issue.
