From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The structure of a typical acyloin.

In organic chemistry, acyloins or α-hydroxy ketones[1] are a class of organic compounds of the general form R−C(=O)−CR'(OH)−R", composed of a hydroxy group (−OH) adjacent to a ketone group (>C=O). The name acyloin is derived from the fact that they are formally derived from reductive coupling of carboxylic acyl groups (R−C(=O)−).[1] They are one of the two main classes of hydroxy ketones, distinguished by the position of the hydroxy group relative to the ketone; in this form, the hydroxy is on the alpha carbon, explaining the secondary name of α-hydroxy ketone.

Synthesis

Classic organic reactions exist for the synthesis of acyloins.

Oxidation with Sulfonyloxaridines

When sulfonyloxaziridines oxidize enol(ate)s, the latter reacts by nucleophilic displacement at the electron deficient oxygen of the oxaziridine ring.

Enolate oxidation by sulfonyloxaziridine

This reaction type is extended to asymmetric synthesis by the use of chiral oxaziridines derived from camphor (camphorsulfonyl oxaziridine). Each isomer gives exclusive access to one of the two possible enantiomers. This modification is applied in the Holton taxol total synthesis.

two optical isomers of camphorsulfonyl oxaziridine

In the enolate oxidation of the cyclopentaenone below[5] with either camphor enantiomer, the trans isomer is obtained because access for the hydroxyl group in the cis position is limited. The use of the standard oxaziridine did not result in an acyloin.
