Acylation Reactions.

N- and O-Acylation.

Succinic anhydride (1) is a reactive acy-

lating agent and reacts rapidly with amines. For alcohols, proce-
dures often call for use of Pyridine or 4-Dimethylaminopyridine
as catalyst. The N-acylation reaction has been extensively used for
the synthesis of chiral succinimides (eq 1),

1a

which are important

intermediates in asymmetric synthesis.

1

The O-acylation has been

widely employed as a facile method for enzymatic resolution of
racemic alcohols (eq 2).

The reaction has been

applied to the preparation of a key intermediate in the synthesis
of cubebene (eq 8).

Reformatsky Reaction.

Electrolysis of ethyl 2-bromo-2-

methylpropanoate in the presence of (1) in DMF gave 1-ethyl 3-
oxo-2,2-dimethylhexanedioate in 65% yield (eq 12).

This elec-

trochemically assisted procedure circumvented both the problems
of zinc activation and the difficulty associated with the uncontrol-
lable exothermic course of the normal Reformatsky reaction of
cyclic carboxylic anhydrides.
