Abstract:
A dual catalytic system, dirhodium tetrapivalate/ytterbium(III) triflate, enables the three-component reactions of α-alkyl-α-diazoesters, aromatic aldehydes, and N-benzylidenebenzylamine derivatives to afford the corresponding β-amino alcohols in good yields after hydrolysis of the oxazolidine cycloadducts, whereas no β-amino alcohols are obtained in the absence of ytterbium(III) triflate. A similar dual catalytic system, dirhodium tetraacetate/ytterbium(III) triflate, is found to be effective in accelerating the reactions of α-aryl-α-diazoesters in high yields. Furthermore, the reactions using dimethyl diazomalonate are described.

Lewis Acids and Bases
A coordinate covalent bond (or dative bond) occurs when one of the atoms in the bond provides both bonding electrons. For example, a coordinate covalent bond occurs when a water molecule combines with a hydrogen ion to form a hydronium ion. A coordinate covalent bond also results when...

Imines are formed under mildly acidic conditions. A pH of 4.5 is ideal for the reaction.
If the pH is low or the solution is too acidic, the reaction slows down in the...
