Abstract:We have developed C-6'-modified quinine quaternary ammonium salts as phase transfer catalysts for alpha-hydroxylation of beta-dicarbonyl compounds. The quinine quaternary ammonium salts, which was modified at C-6' and the N atom, had good activity for alpha-hydroxylation of B-dicarbonyl compounds. By using 5 mol % of 6-hydroxyl-N-(4'-fluoro-2'-trifluoromethyl)quinine quaternary ammonium salt as the organocatalyst, cumene hydroperoxide as the oxidant, toluene as the solvent, and 50% K2HPO4 as the aqueous alkali at room, temperature, the yield and enantioselectivity of the alpha-hydroxylation of beta-keto esters were 95% and 88%, respectively. This catalytic system was also applicable for beta-keto amides (92% yield and 76% ee). (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
