Synthesis of 3-phenyl- and 5- phenyl- 2- pyrrolidinone via rhodium catalysed carbonylation of allylamines

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919608004599

The Rh₄(CO)₁₂ catalysed reaction with CO and H₂ of 1-phenyl- and 3-phenyl allylamine gives 5-phenyl- and 3-phenyl-2-pyrrolidinone respectively, in good yield. A reasonable reaction pathway of the carbonylation reaction is
