Ketones and thioesters undergo soft enolization and acylation using crude acid chlorides on treatment with MgBr2·OEt2 and i-Pr2NEt to give 1,3-diketones and β-keto thioesters, respectively. The use of crude acid chlorides adds efficiency and cost reduction by avoiding the need to purify and/or purchase them. The process is conducted in a direct fashion that does not require prior enolate formation, further enhancing its efficiency and making it very easy to carry out. The method is suitable for large scale applications. ?

(Chemical Equation Presented) Thioesters undergo chemoselective soft enolization and acylation by N-acylbenzotriazoles on treatment with MgBr 2·OEt2 and i-Pr2NEt to give β-keto thloesters. Prior enolate formation is not required, and the reaction is conducted using untreated CH2Cl2 open to the air. The coupled products are stable synthetic equivalents of β-keto acids and can be converted directly into β-keto esters, β-keto amides, and β-diketones under mild conditions. The utility of this carbon-carbon bond-forming method is shown through the synthesis of the PI3-K inhibitor LY294002.
