Highly enantioselective α-chlorination of cyclic β-ketoesters catalyzed by N,N′-Dioxide using NCS as the chlorine source

Abstract

A simple and highly efficient N,N′-dioxide organocatalyst system was developed for the asymmetric α-chlorination of cyclic β-ketoesters using easily available NCS as the chlorine source to provide a series of optically active α-chloro-β-ketoesters in excellent yields with 90–98% ee.
