摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) One step beyond: Proton transfer (step 3, see scheme), not C-C bond formation (step 2) as previously thought, is the rate-limiting step (RLS) in the initial stage of the Baylis-Hillman reaction, which involves the amine-catalyzed addition of an aldehyde to an activated alkene to generate an allylic alcohol. This finding has considerable implications for asymmetric catalysis of the reaction. © 2005 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
