Abstract
A chiral Lewis base or a phase-transfer catalyst (PTC) can mediate the highly enantioselective trifluoromethylthiolation of β-ketoesters with the previously developed SCF3 reagent. Reactions of indanone-derived β-ketoesters occurred with high yield and excellent enantioselectivity with quinine as catalyst. Reactions of tetralone- or 1-benzosuberone-derived β-ketoesters occurred with moderate to good enantioselectivity with a quinine-derived PTC.Entities:
