An Enantioselective Synthesis of 2-Aryl Cycloalkanones by Sc-Catalyzed Carbon Insertion

[摘要]：Current methods for asymmetric alpha-arylation require blocking groups to prevent reaction at the alpha'-carbon, basic conditions that promote racemization, or multistep synthesis. This work records the first catalytic enantioselective examples of the diazoalkane-carbonyl homologation reaction. Medium ring 2-aryl ketones are prepared in one step in up to 98:2 er and 99% yield from the unsubstituted lower homologue by Sc-catalyzed aryldiazomethyl insertion with simple bis- and tris(oxazoline) ligands.
