Decarboxylative aldol reaction of aliphatic carboxylic acids is a useful method for C-C bond formation because carboxylic acids are an easily available class of compounds. In this study, we found that the decarboxylative aldol reaction of tertiary β-ketocarboxylic acids and trifluoropyruvates proceeded smoothly to yield the corresponding aldol products in high yields and with high diastereoselectivity in the presence of a tertiary amine catalyst. In this reaction, we efficiently constructed a qu ...[more]
