Abstract
Three nitroarenes were submitted to Ru-3(CO)(12)-catalyzed reductive c arbonylation in acetonitrile and in cis-cyclooctene. The main reaction products were the corresponding amines, ureas and six- or five-member ed cyclization products. Optimization of the reaction varying the temp erature, the CO pressure, the catalyst/substrate ratio and the reactio n time and a statistical analysis of conversion and selectivity data a llow to suggest a reaction mechanism in some reaction conditions.
