An ionic cobalt-PNP complex is developed for the efficient α-alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols for the first time. A broad range of ketone and alcohol substrates were employed, leading to the isolation of alkylated ketones with yields up to 98%. The method was successfully applied to the greener synthesis of quinoline derivatives while using 2-aminobenzyl alcohol as an alkylating reagent.
首次开发了一种离子型钴-PNP 配合物,用于高效地实现酮与伯醇的α-烷基化反应。该方法适用范围广泛,可用于多种酮和醇底物,以高达 98%的产率得到烷基化酮产物。该方法还成功地应用于以 2-氨基苄醇为烷基化试剂的绿色合成喹啉衍生物。
