ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of γ,δ‐Unsaturated α‐Aminoaldehydes Using a Copper‐Catalyzed Vinylation Reaction Followed by a Claisen Rearrangement.

Abstract

A high‐yielding copper‐catalyzed coupling reaction of β‐iodoenamides with various allylic is described which is applicable to the transformation of alkyl or aryl alcohols, albeit generally low product yields are obtained.
