An efficient and expedient method was developed for α-alkylation of aromatic ketones with secondary alcohols to produce β-disubstituted ketones using phosphine-free pincer ruthenium complexes as the catalyst. This selective, catalytic C−C bond forming reaction proceeds with low catalyst load, catalytic amount of base under air and produces H2O as the only by-product, making the process environmentally
以无膦钳钌配合物为催化剂,开发了一种高效、便捷的芳香酮与仲醇α-烷基化生产β-二取代酮的方法。这种选择性催化 C−C 键形成反应在空气中以低催化剂负载和催化量的碱进行,并产生 H 2 O 作为唯一的副产物,使该过程环境友好且原子效率高。

phosphine-free pincer ruthenium(III) catalyzed β-alkylation of secondaryalcohols with primary alcohols to α-alkylated ketones and two different secondaryalcohols to β-branched ketones are reported. Notably, this transformation is environmentally benign and atom efficient with H2O and H2 gas as the only byproducts. The protocol is extended to gram-scale reaction and for functionalization of complex vitamin E
