Description

We have disclosed the deconjugative esterification of &alpha,&beta-unsaturated carboxylic acids through 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) coupling. In the presence of trimethylamine hydrochloride and N,N-dimethylethylamine, an esterification of (E)-5-phenylpent-2-enoic acid and isopropanol through DCC coupling in CH2Cl2 at 50ºC afforded &beta,&gamma-unsaturated ester as a major product with a ratio of 91:9. The tendency toward deconjugation in the esterification seemed to depend on the bulkiness of alcohols. The reaction probably involves the generation of a conjugated ketene intermediate, which is converted into the corresponding &beta,&gamma-unsaturated esters by treatment with alcohols.
