Abstract

The first example of the preparation of α-diazo-β-hydroxy esters by the aldol-type condensation of aldehydes with ethyl diazoacetate using Et<subscript>3</subscript>N as base in the presence of magnesium iodide etherate [MgI<subscript>2</subscript>.(Et<subscript>2</subscript>O)<subscript>n</subscript>] has been achieved in good to excellent yields at room temperature in CH<subscript>2</subscript>Cl<subscript>2</subscript> in 15-30 min.
