Methyl 2-chlorobut-3-enoate

CAS: 51171-63-2

Methyl 2-chlorobut-3-enoate is a benzyl functionalized cyclization product. It is synthesized from homoallylamines by a diastereoselective synthesis in the presence of carbamates. The cyclization reaction is induced by a transition metal or stereochemical change, which provides the desired stereochemistry in high yield and diastereoselectivity. Methyl 2-chlorobut-3-enoate has been used in biologically significant reactions such as the synthesis of homoallylic amines, which are important intermediates for pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and herbicides.
