Title: β-Functionalization of carboxylic anhydrides with β-alkyl substituents through carbene organocatalysis. Author: Jin Z, Chen S, Wang Y, Zheng P, Yang S, Chi YR. Journal: Angew Chem Int Ed Engl; 2014 Dec 01; 53(49):13506-9. PubMed ID: 25284248. Abstract: The first NHC-catalyzed functionalization of carboxylic anhydrides is described. In this reaction, the β carbon behaves as a nucleophilic carbon and undergoes asymmetric reactions with electrophiles. Anhydrides with challenging β-alkyl substituents work effectively.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
