"On-water" conjugate additions of anilines

The conjugate addition of anilines onto unsaturated ketones, esters and N-acylpyrroles was investigated. Based on a recently proposed explanation for the phenomenon of on-water catalysis, operationally simple and mild reaction conditions for effecting these addition reactions have been developed. Th...

Description
Summary:The conjugate addition of anilines onto unsaturated ketones, esters and N-acylpyrroles was investigated. Based on a recently proposed explanation for the phenomenon of on-water catalysis, operationally simple and mild reaction conditions for effecting these addition reactions have been developed. The success of these additions provides further support for the acid-catalysed nature of on-water chemistry.
