RuCl2(DMSO)4 catalyzes the β-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols through a hydrogen autotransfer process
The electrophilic β-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols is accomplished by a hydrogen autotransfer process catalyzed by RuCl2(DMSO)4. The reaction can produce either simple alkylated secondary alcohols or α,β-unsaturated ketones with good to excellent results just by choosing the appropriate starting secondary alcohol (methyl or longer chain secondary alcohol, respectively), as well as quinolines (by using 2-aminobenzyl alcohol).
