Abstract
Carbon-carbon single bond activation and functionalization occurs in a quinolinyl ketone structure through rhodium catalyzed bond activation and subsequent insertion of a Michael acceptor, primarily methyl acrylate and N,N-dimethylacrylamide. A variety of quinolinyl ketones and Michael acceptors are observed to react catalytically, forming a disubstituted alkene coupling product. A broad scope of quinolinyl ketones and Michael acceptors have been used to investigate the mechanism for the reaction.
