Preparation of an amine N-oxide on solid phase: an efficient promoter of the Pauson–Khand reaction

Abstract

A novel, recyclable polymer-supported amine N-oxide has been prepared and shown to be a good promoter of the Pauson–Khand reaction under mild conditions, affording good to excellent yields of cyclopentenones.
