One-Pot Reductive Amination of Acetals with Aromatic Amines Using Decaborane (B10H14) in Methanol
摘要:
Aldehyde acetals and ketone ketals were reductively aminated in one pot with aromatic amines to give the corresponding amines in methanol or aqueous methanol in good to high yields. This direct method might be important because acetals and ketals are used as a popular protecting group for aldehyde and ketones. The advantage of our method is effective even in an aqueous solution and in the application to selective reaction.
