We describe a biomimetic organocatalytic enantioselective decarboxylative addition of malonic acid half thioesters to imines. This simple protocol makes use of readily available Cinchona-derived organocatalysts and nucleophiles at the carboxylate oxidation state. The resulting β-amino thioesters, being attractive precursors for the preparation of optically active, β-amino acids, are formed in good yields and in up to 79 % ee. As suggested by several mechanistic insights the desired products are formed via initial formation of a thioester acetate enolate via decarboxylation of the malonic acid half thioester, followed by addition to the imine.
Methanesulfonic anhydride-promoted sustainable synthesis of thioesters from feedstock acids and thiols

Abstract: An unprecedented metal-, halogen- and solvent-free, MSAA-promoted S-carbonylation of thiols with feedstock acids has been developed. This new transformation provides an efficient and atom-economic strategy for the synthesis of thioesters in a single operation from readily available and inexpensive starting materials. The reaction avoids the use of expensive and hazardous coupling reagents, bases and generates water as the only by-product, thus making this chemical synthetic process more viable, environment-friendly and contributing towards sustainable chemistry.

An alternative thioesterification reaction via copper-catalyzed oxidative coupling of readily available aroylhydrazides with disulfides is developed, in which oxidative expulsion of N2 overcomes the activation barrier between the carboxylic acid derivativ
