Sv. Ley et al., SOLID-PHASE SYNTHESIS OF BICYCLO[2.2.2]OCTANE DERIVATIVES VIA TANDEM MICHAEL ADDITION-REACTIONS AND SUBSEQUENT REDUCTIVE AMINATION, Synlett, (10), 1995, pp. 1017
Tandem Michael addition reactions of polymer bound acrylates with cycl
ohexenones and subsequent reductive amination was achieved, which afte
r cleavage from the support under reductive, acidolytic or aminolytic
conditions afforded of a wide variety of bicyclo[2.2.2]octanes. The pr
ocess may find application in combinatorial library synthesis.
