The first example of the catalytic activity of (µ-H)Os3(µ-OCNR1R2)(CO)10 clusters in the double bond migration reactions of allylic systems functionalised with an amido group

Abstract

As exemplified by the isomerisation of N-allylacetamide in the presence of hydridocarbonyl complexes (µ-H)Os₃(µ-OCNR¹R²)(CO)₁₀ (R¹ = H, Alk; R² = Alk), it has been demonstrated for the first time that they are effective catalysts for the [1,2]-double bond shift under mild conditions in allylic compounds functionalised with an amido group.
