Phosphabarrelene-modified Rh-catalysts: a new and selective route towards hydroxy-functionalized bicyclic imidazolesvia tandem reactions

Abstract

8-Hydroxy-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine was formed selectively in high yields from N-(β-methallyl)imidazole by a tandem hydroformylation–cyclization sequence, representing a novel one-pot catalytic synthesis of bicyclic imidazole derivatives.
