Reactions of an organophosphate ester with carboxylic acids proceeded smoothly and chemoselectively in the presence of a Brønsted acid, affording acyl phosphate intermediates, leading to formation of various functional aromatic ketones.

A series of alkyl and alkenyl p-methoxy arenes containing α,β-disubstituted diamino and amino alcohol groups were synthesized from β-nitro and β-azido benzylic alcohols in the presence of AuCl3 as catalyst. The formation of predominantly syn-disubstituted products were rationalized on the basis of mechanistic considerations and transition state models relying on A1,3-allylic strain. The products could have utility in the design of medicinally relevant compounds and as chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis. A new synthesis of (+)-sertraline (Zoloft) was achieved.
