Abstract

A straightforward, catalyst- and additive-free approach has been described for synthesizing α-acyloxy ketones from β-ketosulfoxonium ylides and carboxylic acids. Moderate to high yields of α-acyloxy ketones were produced using sulfoxonium ylides and carboxylic acids adorned with various functional groups. Eventually, the applicability of this approach has been shown via a large-scale reaction and transforming the synthesized α-acyloxy ketone derivatives into other valuable compounds.
