Enantioselective Iodine(III)-Mediated Synthesis of α-Tosyloxy Ketones: Breaking the Selectivity Barrier

The development of practical methods to access chiral nonracemic α-substituted ketones is of particular importance due to their ubiquitous nature. Unprecedented levels of enantioselectivity are reported for the synthesis of α-tosyloxy ketones, using enol esters and chiral iodine(III) reagents. The reaction can be performed under both stoichiometric and catalytic conditions. These results suggest widely different reaction mechanisms for the reaction of ketones versus enol esters, supporting recent computational insights.

Catalytic enantioselective α-oxysulfonylation of ketones mediated by iodoarenes

The α-oxysulfonylation of ketones catalysed by enantio enriched iodoarenes using mCPBA as stoichiometric oxidant is reported to give useful synthetic intermediates in good yield and modest enantioselectivity. We believe this to be the first report of an enantioselective organocatalytic reaction involving hypervalent iodine reagents which should open up a new field for enantioselective organocatalysis of oxidation reactions.
