A novel, metal-free aerobic oxidation method is described. 4-Dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) successfully catalyzed the oxidation of aryl α-halo esters to corresponding aryl α-keto esters (up to 95% yield) under mild reaction conditions (LiCO, dimethylacetamide, air, and room temperature). A mechanism has been proposed where the oxidation proceeds through a [3 + 2] cycloaddition between O in an air atmosphere and pyridinium ylides. The ylides are supposedly generated from aryl α-halo esters and DMAP in the presence of carbonates. Based on the plausible mechanism, the potential of DMAP as a catalyst in oxidation reactions was extended.
描述了一种新型的无金属需氧氧化方法。在温和的反应条件下(碳酸锂、二甲基乙酰胺、空气和室温),4-二甲基氨基吡啶(DMAP)成功催化芳基α-卤代酯氧化为相应的芳基α-酮酯(产率高达95%)。有人提出了一种机理,即氧化反应通过在空气气氛中O与吡啶叶立德之间的[3 + 2]环加成进行。叶立德据推测是在碳酸盐存在下由芳基α-卤代酯和DMAP生成的。基于这一合理的机理,扩展了DMAP作为氧化反应催化剂的潜力。
