The copper-catalyzed selective monoalkylation of active methylene compounds with alkylsilyl peroxides

Abstract

A novel method for a mild copper-catalyzed selective monoalkylation of active methylene compounds with various alkylsilyl peroxides has been developed. The reaction has a broad substrate scope and our mechanistic studies suggest the participation of radical species in this alkylation reaction.
