イオン液体によって媒介1,6-ケトエステルの高立体選択的合成：低分子ゲル化剤の新しいクラスへの迅速なアクセスを有効にする三成分の反応

Ionic liquids (ILs) mediate fast, simple and cheap access to 1,6-ketoesters in high diastereoselectivities and good yields. The reaction protocol is robust and the 1,6-ketoesters can be obtained in gram scale after a simple filtration protocol. Moreover, the 1,6-ketoesters are potent gelators in hydrocarbon solvents.
