A rhodium catalyzed benzylic C(sp3)− C(sp3) bond formation with Michael acceptors was achieved. The catalyst is proposed to activate the aromatic ring via η6-coordination, dramatically facilitating benzylic deprotonation and addition of the resulting carbanion to the electrophile in the absence of a base. This byproduct-free method features a wide scope of alkylarenes bearing primary, secondary, or
实现了与迈克尔受体形成铑催化的苄基 C(sp 3 )-C(sp 3 ) 键。该催化剂被提议通过 η 6 -配位活化芳环,显着促进苄基去质子化和在没有碱的情况下将所得碳负离子加成到亲电子试剂中。这种无副产物的方法具有范围广泛的带有伯、仲或叔苄基 C-H 键的烷基芳烃。
