High yields of diazabicycloalkanes and oxazabicycloalkanes containing medium and large rings from rhodium-catalysed hydroformylation reactions without the need for high dilution conditions

Abstract

Rhodium-catalysed reactions of N-alkenyl-1,3-diaminopropanes and N-alkenylaminoethanols give diazabicycloalkanes and oxazabicycloalkanes containing medium or large rings in excellent yields.
