Abstract
The aldimines reacted with alkenes under a rhodium catalytic system, Rh[(co e)(2)Cl](2) and Cy3P, to give mainly the double alkylated products with mod erate to high yields. On the other hand, the ketimine 9 gave the mono alkyl ated product predominantly. (C), 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights rese rved.
