Notes:
The first example of an acid-catalyzed isomerization of an α-ketoester into β-ketoesters is described. Ethyl 2-keto-3,3-diphenylbutyrate rearranged in fluorosulfonic acid at 0° into ethyl 2-benzoyl-2-phenylpropionate and ethyl 2,2-diphenylacetoacetate. In contrast, fragmentation of ethyl 3,3-diphenylpyruvate to benzophenone occurred in the same conditions.
