Research Abstract |
We have accomplished the efficient N-acyl bond cleavage of both N-acyl-2-oxazolidinone and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)amide based on the reaction with NaOMe in the presence of excess dimethyl carbonate to accomplish a clean removal of those chiral auxiliaries. These reactions generally proceed under mild conditions to give the corresponding methyl esters in high yields. The N-acyl bond cleavage described here are especially useful for sterically demanding molecules with quaternary carbons neighboring exocyclic or carbamoyl carbonyl of N-acyl-2-oxazolidinones or N-(2-hydroxyethyl)amides and for thermodynamically less stable molecules such as atropisomeric compounds with planar, axial, or herical chirality, which face a risk of isomerization at higher temperatures.
