Abstract
An electroreductive deoxygenative carboxylation of alkyl oxalates with CO2 is demonstrated for the first time, which offers a general and scalable method for obtaining various carboxylic acids. This electrochemical method features a broad substrate scope and mild reaction conditions; various secondary benzyl alcohols and non-benzylic alcohols, primary benzyl alcohols and non-benzylic alcohols, and tertiary benzyl alcohols and non-benzylic alcohols can be converted into the corresponding carboxylic acids in good to excellent yields. Importantly, this electroreductive deoxygenative carboxylation reaction also offers a mild and straightforward route to access drug molecules, such as ibuprofen, (±) naproxen, fenoprofen, hexaprofen, and biprofen.
期刊介绍：
Green Chemistry is a journal that provides a unique forum for the publication of innovative research on the development of alternative green and sustainable technologies. The scope of Green Chemistry is based on the definition proposed by Anastas and Warner (Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice, P T Anastas and J C Warner, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1998), which defines green chemistry as the utilisation of a set of principles that reduces or eliminates the use or generation of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture and application of chemical products. Green Chemistry aims to reduce the environmental impact of the chemical enterprise by developing a technology base that is inherently non-toxic to living things and the environment. The journal welcomes submissions on all aspects of research relating to this endeavor and publishes original and significant cutting-edge research that is likely to be of wide general appeal. For a work to be published, it must present a significant advance in green chemistry, including a comparison with existing methods and a demonstration of advantages over those methods.
