Abstract
Here we report a new and mild Rh(III)-catalyzed and alcohol-involved carbenoid C-H insertion into N-phenoxyacetamides using α-diazomalonates. This reaction provided a straightforward way for installing both an α-quaternary carbon center and a free-OH moiety into the phenyl ring, thus giving access to useful 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-alkoxymalonates with good substrate/functional group tolerance.
