The Diels-Alder cyclization of ketenimines
Abstract
A Diels-Alder reaction between cyclopentadiene and a variety of ketenimines is reported. A copper(I)-bis(phosphine complex catalyzes the cycloaddition across the C═N bond of the ketenimine in a [4 + 2] reaction to give an enamine intermediate that is hydrolyzed upon purification to generate aminoketones.
