Z. Szarka et al., Highly efficient synthesis of steroidal hydroxamic acid derivatives via homogeneous catalytic carbonylation reaction, TETRAHEDRON, 56(29), 2000, pp. 5253-5257
Steroidal hydroxamic acid derivatives were synthesized in moderate to high
yields by palladium-catalyzed carbonylation reactions of the corresponding
iodo-alkenyl compounds or enol triflates in the presence of substituted hyd
roxylamines under mild reaction conditions. The effect of reaction paramete
rs on the regioselectivity of carbonylation of N-substituted hydroxylamines
is investigated in detail. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reser
