Several Gold’s reagents were synthesized from cyanuric chloride and N,N-dialkylformamides. These synthetic equivalents of N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal were used in an optimized and scalable procedure for the regioselective synthesis of a variety of enaminones from ketone starting materials, whose utility was demonstrated by the stereoselective synthesis of Rawal-type dienes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
