The first one-pot tandem Michael addition/enantioselective Conia-ene cyclization of N-protected prop-2-yn-1-amines with 2-methylene-3-oxoalkanoates promoted by chiral iron(III)/silver(I) cooperative catalysts was developed. Alkyl 4-methylenepyrrolidine-3-acyl-3-carboxylates, which can be transformed into 灏?proline derivatives, were obtained in high yield with high enantioselectivity. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Ethyl 3-oxo-3-(thiophen-2-yl)propanoate (cas: 13669-10-8Reference of 13669-10-8).
Ethyl 3-oxo-3-(thiophen-2-yl)propanoate (cas: 13669-10-8) belongs to esters. Esters typically have a pleasant smell; those of low molecular weight are commonly used as fragrances and are found in essential oils and pheromones. Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two reactants (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product. Esters are common in organic chemistry and biological materials.Reference of 13669-10-8
