Unusual regioselectivity in Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling of allylic monoacetates and nitroalkanes: one-pot isomerization–alkylation
摘要:
A hitherto unknown palladium-catalyzed reaction of nitroalkanes with hydroxy allylic acetates is reported. The reaction led to the formation of gamma-nitrocarbonyl Compounds instead of the usual unsaturated nitroalcohol expected upon displacement of the allylic acetate group. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
