From Internal Olefins to Linear Amines: Ruthenium-Catalyzed Domino Water-Gas Shift/Hydroaminomethylation Sequence
A selective ruthenium-catalyzed water-gas shift/hydroformylation of internal olefins and olefin mixtures is reported. This novel domino reaction takes place through a catalytic water-gas shift reaction, subsequent olefin isomerization, followed by hydrofo
