Ruthenium-Catalyzed C-C Bond Forming Transfer Hydrogenation: Carbonyl Allylation from the Alcohol or Aldehyde Oxidation Level Employing Acyclic 1,3-Dienes as Surrogates to Preformed Allyl Metal Reagents

摘要

Ruthenium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation ranks among the most powerful methods available for the reduction of polar functional groups, yet reductive C-C bond formations catalyzed by ruthenium are highly uncommon. We have shown that reductive C-C bond fo
