Transition metal-free addition of ketones or nitriles to 1,3-dienes

Abstract

The simpler the better (or going green): The first examples of the catalytic addition of 1,3-dienes to simple ketones or nitriles are described. These reactions can be effected on a kilogram scale, representing the shortest access featuring a perfect atom economy to molecules of interest in the perfume industry.
