Org Lett. 2018 Apr 6;20(7):2116-2119. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.8b00696. Epub 2018 Mar 19.

Abstract

A novel and versatile method for the synthesis of 2-imidazolines has been developed via the Pd-catalyzed cyclization reaction of readily available homoallenyl oxime acetates with aryl iodides. This protocol is performed under mild reaction conditions and needs no additives or ligands.
