Oxone-Mediated Oxidative Esterification of Heterocyclic Aldehydes Using Indium(III) Triflate
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent investigations have shown the oxone-mediated oxidative methyl esterification of benzaldehyde derivatives using methanol. The reactions were accelerated in the presence of indium(III) triflate, a trivalent indium reagent, in many cases. Based on this method of methyl esterification of benzaldehyde derivatives, we further explored an application to heterocyclic aldehydes. The reactions were examined using methanol as well as other alcohols in order to establish a suitable range.

The effect of indium(III) triflate in oxone-mediated oxidative methyl esterification of aldehydes.
An oxidative methyl esterification of aldehydes was effectively achieved. The trivalent indium reagent, indium(III) triflate, was revealed to accelerate the reactions in many cases. Aromatic aldehydes with various substituents were subjected to this method, and each produced the corresponding methyl esters in good to excellent yields within a relatively short reaction time.
متن کاملIndium(III) triflate-catalysed [4 + 2] benzannulation reactions of o-alkynylbenzaldehydes with enolisable carbonyl compounds: selective synthesis of naphthyl ketones.
Indium(III) triflate is found to be an effective catalyst for the benzannulation reactions of o-alkynylbenzaldehydes with enolisable aldehydes, ketones, 1,3-diketones and β-keto esters. The reactions produce naphthyl ketones through ring opening of adducts arising from the inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reactions between in situ generated isochromenylium cations and enols. The main feature...

متن کاملDual metal and Lewis base catalysis approach for asymmetric synthesis of dihydroquinolines and the α-arylation of aldehydes via N-acyliminium ions.
A dual catalytic system consisting of indium triflate and a chiral imidazolidinone catalyzes the asymmetric addition of aldehydes to N-acyl quinoliniums furnishing optically active dihydroquinolines in good yields and excellent selectivities. The products were further functionalized into optically active tetrahydroquinolines, quinolines and 6-oxa-2-aza-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes.
