Green Synthesis
of α‑Keton Thiol Ester
via Photocatalytic Oxidative Radical Addition of Thioic Acid to Alkene
Posted on 2023-05-30 - 13:05
α-Keton sulfides are versatile building blocks
in organic
synthesis. From thioic acids and alkenes, we were able to develop
the direct synthesis of α-keton thiol esters via photocatalytic
oxidative radical additions. This reaction well matches the idea of
green chemistry. It takes the advantage of thioxanthone as an inexpensive
organic photocatalyst, O2 as a green oxidant, EtOAc as
a green solvent, and visible light as a sustainable energy source,
and the only byproduct is water.
