Abstract

The synthesis of ortho-alkylated ketones through a chelation-assisted Rh (I) catalyzed ortho-alkylation reaction of aromatic imines under microwave activated solvent-free conditions in monomode reactors was performed. These conditions have been also applied to hydroacylation and ortho-alkylation reactions with aldimines.
