RESUMO
A one-step synthesis of aliphatic KATs from organocuprates is reported. Organolithium and organomagnesium reagents were readily transmetalated onto Cu(I) and coupled with a KAT-forming reagent to yield the respective aliphatic KAT. The protocol is suitable for primary, secondary and-for the first time-tertiary alkyl substrates. These protocols considerably expand the range of KATs that can be readily accessed in one step from commercially available starting materials.
RESUMO
New bifunctional potassium acyltrifluoroborate (KAT) substrates have been synthesized in gram scale using optimized reaction conditions. Chemoselective transformation of functional groups in the presence of an acyltrifluoroborate has been demonstrated, and orthogonal reactions of bifunctional KAT reagents are reported. This allows for the incorporation of KAT moieties into peptides and dyes.
