AI Article Synopsis

  • The study introduces nucleophilic imines along with 2-hydroxybenzophenone to enhance chemical reactions.
  • A key aspect of this approach is the formation of a six-membered ring through hydrogen bonding, which boosts reactivity and selectivity.
  • The effectiveness of this strategy is backed by both computational DFT calculations and experimental evidence.

Article Abstract

The addition of nucleophilic imines, using 2-hydroxybenzophenone as a chemical auxiliary, is presented. An intramolecular six-membered ring via hydrogen bonding that enhances the reactivity and selectivity is the key of this strategy, which is supported by DFT calculations and experimental trials.
