A synthetically convenient approach for the direct α-deuteration of amides is reported. This mechanistically unusual process relies on a retro-ene-type process, triggered by the addition of deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide to a keteniminium intermediate, generated through electrophilic amide activation. The transformation displays broad functional-group tolerance and high deuterium incorporation.
本文报道了一种酰胺直接α-氘代的合成方法。这种机制不同寻常的过程依赖于-retro-ene-型过程,通过亲电酰胺活化生成的烯酮亚胺中间体与氘代二甲亚砜加成触发。该转化具有广泛的官能团耐受性和高氘掺入。
