Intramolecular hydrogen-bond activation for the addition of nucleophilic imines: 2-hydroxybenzophenone as a chemical auxiliary

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.
