Abstract
Various unstrained sec-alcohols, including cycloalkanols, reacted with alke nes under a catalytic system of Rh(I) complex, 2-amino-3-picoline, and K2CO 3 to give the alkyl-group-exchanged ketones through transfer hydrogenation and consecutive carbon-carbon bond activation The presence of base is essen tial to enhance the rate of the oxidation step, and alkene acts as a hydrog en acceptor and a substrate of the carbon-carbon coupling reaction.
