Allylcarboxylic acids are prepared from alkenes by a two-stage process which is synthetically equivalent to an ene reaction of carbon dioxide: (1) ene reaction with diethyl oxomalonate to afford an α-hydroxylmalonic ester and (2) oxidative bisdecarboxylation of the derived α-hydroxymalonic acid.The oxidative bisdecarboxylation of α-hydroxymalonic acids can sometimes be achieved with sodium periodate.However, occasionally decarboxylation is only partial, leading to pyruvic rather than carboxylic acids.While the bisdecarboxylations with periodate have previously been "buffered with a little pyridine", the latter is now shown to inhibit the reaction.In fact the pyruvate:carboxylate ratio can be a sensitive function of the amount of pyridine present in the reaction mixture, and the oxidative decarboxylation can be controlled to yield almost exclusively carboxylic or pyruvic acid.An effective new reagent, ceric ammonium nitrate in aqueous acetonitrile, was discovered for oxidative bisdecarboxylation of α-hydroxymalonic acids.Fortunately this reagent provides good to excellent yields of allylcarboxylic acids in many cases for which sodium periodate proved unsatisfactory.
