Abstract

Dirhodium caprolactamate [Rh2(cap)4] is a highly effective catalyst for the oxidative Mannich reaction. The reaction proceeds via C-H oxidation of a tertiary amine followed by nucleophilic capture. This green transformation is conducted in protic solvent using inexpensive T-HYDRO (70% t-BuOOH in water). Synthetically valuable gamma-aminoalkyl butenolides are obtained.
