Rhodium(I)- or ruthenium(II)-catalyzed direct coupling of vinyl ketones with aldehydes and the subsequent reduction to give aldol derivatives anti-selectively
Sato, Susumu,Matsuda, Isamu,Shibata, Masahiro
, p. 347 - 356 (2007/10/02)
A vinyl ketone reacts with an aldehyde to give an α-methylene-β-hydroxyalkanone with the concomitant formation of the vinyl ketone dimer in the presence of catalytic amount of RhH(PPh3)4 or RuH2(PPh3)4 under almost neutral conditions.The selectivity of th
SYN-SELECTIVE ADDITION OF ENOL BORATES TO ALDEHYDES
Hoffmann, Reinhard W.,Ditrich, Klaus
, p. 1781 - 1784 (2007/10/02)
Both the Z- and the E-enolborate 4 and 6 add to aldehydes in a stereoconvergent reaction to give β-hydroxyketones with a syn/anti ratio of >= 9 : 1.
