Expeditious and novel synthesis of alpha-hydroxyesters via rhodium-NHC catalyzed arylation of ethyl glyoxalate

The rhodium-NHC catalyzed arylation reaction of ethyl glyoxalate with aryl and alkyl boronic acids provides an efficient method for the synthesis of alpha-hydroxyesters. A wide range of alpha-hydroxyesters (up to 12) were prepared in good to excellent yields. KO'Bu was the base of choice, along...
