Abstract

The use of microwave heating technique for the acceleration of ortho ester Claisen rearrangement (a three step transformation) is described. Irradiation of a DMF solution of the allyl alcohol 5̲, triethyl orthoacetate and propionic acid (catalytic) in an Erlenmeyer flask for 10 minutes in a microwave oven generated the ester 8̲ in 83% yield. Analogously, ortho ester Claisen rearrangement of a variety of allyl and propargyl alcohols (9̲, 12-22̲) were achieved. The formation of the diester 10̲ from 2-butyne-1,4-diol (9̲) via the ortho ester Claisen rearrangement of two allyl alcohol moieties (involving six steps) in 15 minutes, demonstrates the versatility of the microwave heating technique.
