Abstract

Rh2(OAc)4 catalyzed diazo decomposition of aryldiazoacetates in the presence of titanium(IV) isopropoxide generated oxonium ylide intermediates. Trapping of the oxonium ylide intermediates with imines occurred subsequently via a nucleophilic addition. The three-component reaction of aryldiazoacetates, titanium(IV) isopropoxide, and imines gave α-alkoxyl-β-amino acid derivatives with C-N/C-C bond formation in a single step. Extension of the study to a four-component reaction with in situ generated imine was also investigated.
