Redox reorganization: aluminium promoted 1,5-hydride shifts allow the controlled synthesis of multisubstituted cyclohexenes

An efficient synthesis of cyclohexenes has been achieved from easily accessible tetrahydropyrans via a tandem 1,5-hydride shift–aldol condensation. We discovered that readily available aluminium reagents, e.g. Al2O3 or Al(OtBu)3 are essential for this process, promoting the 1,5-hydride shift with co...
