Diols as Dienophiles: Bridged Carbocycles via Ruthenium(0) ‐Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenative Cycloadditions of Cyclohexadiene or Norbornadiene

AngewchemDiols as Dienophiles: Bridged Carbocycles via Ruthenium(0) ‐Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenative Cycloadditions of Cyclohexadiene or Norbornadiene: Highly exo ‐selective ruthenium(0) catalyzed transfer hydrogenative cycloadditions of 1,2‐diols with cyclohexadiene or norbornadiene are described. Novel bridged bicyclic ring systems are accessible from...
