Abstract
This paper shows a novel oxidative functionalization of α-amino ketones to yield the corresponding α-ketoamides and α-acylimidates. The reaction proceeds via oxygen delivery from water/alcohols in conjunction with an electron acceptor and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). Mechanistic study indicates that DMAP exhibits a dual function of nucleophilic catalysis and proton abstraction.
