Participants

Reaction Steps

DBU (3.8 mg, 0.025 mmol) was added under argon to a solution of benzaldehyde (106 mg, 1 mmol), nitrosobenzene (107 mg, 1 mmol) and catalyst (1.82 mg, 0.005 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 min. The solvent was removed under vacuum, and the residue was purified by flash silica gel column chromatography using hexane and ethyl acetate as the eluents.
