Acid-Catalyzed Air-Oxidative Fragmentation of the Carbon–Carbon Bond in 2-Aryl-1-tetralones

[Image: see text] Catalytic auto-oxidation with air is a highly desirable method for green synthesis. Described here is a method for acid-catalyzed one step air-oxidative fragmentation of 2-aryl-1-tetralones to alkyl-2-(3-oxo-3-aryl) benzoates in the presence of alcohol. This method was then demonst...

description [Image: see text] Catalytic auto-oxidation with air is a highly desirable method for green synthesis. Described here is a method for acid-catalyzed one step air-oxidative fragmentation of 2-aryl-1-tetralones to alkyl-2-(3-oxo-3-aryl) benzoates in the presence of alcohol. This method was then demonstrated using concise synthesis of a key intermediate of antiasthma drug Montelukast sodium. Moreover, the paradoxical nature of the reaction in which ester forms but only within a low concentration threshold of alcohol helps in understanding the mechanism of the reaction.
