Rhodium(III)-catalyzed internal oxidative coupling of N-hydroxyanilides with alkenes via C–H activation
摘要:
Described herein is an efficient new method for ortho-olefination of anilides in the presence of AgSbF6 and NaOAc via rhodium(III)-catalyzed internal oxidative C-H bond activation based on hydroxyl as directing and oxidative group. A range of alkenes and functional groups on acetanilides is supported and a possible mechanism is proposed according to the experimental results. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
