Ruthenium-catalyzed hydration of nitriles and transformation of .delta.-keto nitriles to ene-lactams
摘要:
Hydration of nitriles and transformation of delta-keto nitriles to ene-lactams can be performed efficiently by using RuH2(PPh3)4 catalyst under mild conditions. The effectiveness of the reaction is illustrated by the short-step synthesis of (-)-pumiliotoxin C.
