Modular Synthesis of α,α-Diaryl α‑Amino Esters via Bi(V)-Mediated Arylation/SN2‑Displacement of Kukhtin–Ramirez Intermediates

We report a concise and modular approach to α,α-diaryl α-amino esters from readily available α-keto esters. This mild, one-pot protocol proceeds via ketone umpolung, with in situ formation of a Kukhtin–Ramirez intermediate preceding sequential electrophilic arylation by Bi­(V) and SN2 displacement b...

Summary:We report a concise and modular approach to α,α-diaryl α-amino esters from readily available α-keto esters. This mild, one-pot protocol proceeds via ketone umpolung, with in situ formation of a Kukhtin–Ramirez intermediate preceding sequential electrophilic arylation by Bi­(V) and SN2 displacement by an amine. The methodology is compatible with a wide range of anilines and primary amines - including derivatives of drugs and proteinogenic amino acids - Bi­(V) arylating agents, and α-keto ester substrates.
