Abstract

The direct C–H functionalization of ethyl acetates was developed, delivering a variety of 1-(4-oxochroman-2-yl)ethyl acetate derivatives by reacting with chromones. This reaction has a wide substrate scope with excellent site-selective C–H activation at the inactive α-hydrogen of the alkoxyl group instead of the α-hydrogen of the carbonyl group under radical conditions. Compared with other protocols for the α-alkoxyl C–H functionalization of alkyl esters, a distinguishing feature of this reaction is that no metal catalyst was required, with DTBP as the sole oxidant.
