A mild and highly efficient amine-catalyzed,IBX-mediated oxidation of aldehydes to(E) selective α,β-unsaturated aldehydes has been achieved in good yields.The process features a new oxidation of enamines to iminium ions in a catalytic fashion.
An unprecedented acetic acid-catalyzed efficient access to N-alkylpyrroles from reaction of 4-hydroxy-L-proline with a variety of aldehydes has been achieved in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions.
