Abstract

An efficient method for direct alkylation of ketones and alcohols through the borrowing hydrogen strategy in the presence of rhodium complexes as catalyst was developed. This transformation is tolerant to various functional substrates and is efficient in C–C coupling of primary and secondary alcohols, which provides an alternative method of the synthesis of functional ketones from simple and commercially available materials.
