Intermolecular Dehydrative Coupling Reaction of Arylketones with Cyclic Alkenes Catalyzed by a Well-Defined Cationic Ruthenium-Hydride Complex: A Novel Ketone Olefination Method via Vinyl C-H Bond Activation
{{output}}
The cationic ruthenium-hydride complex [(eta(6)-C(6)H(6))(PCy(3))(CO)RuH](+)BF(4) (-) was found to be a highly effective catalyst for the intermolecular olefination reaction of arylketones with cycloalkenes. The preliminary mechanistic analysis revealed that e... ...
