Hydrogen borrowing catalysis using 1° and 2° alcohols: investigation and scope leading to α and β branched products
The alkylation of a variety of ketones using 1° or 2° alcohols under hydrogen borrowing catalysis is described. Initial research focused on the α-alkylation of cyclopropyl ketones with higher 1° alcohols (i.e. larger than MeOH), leading to the formation of α-branched products. Our search for additio...
