Abstract
A simple
and efficient Ru-catalyzed conjugate addition reaction
of arylboronic acids to α,β-unsaturated ketones under
neutral conditions without any additional ligands has been developed.
This Ru(II)-catalytic system both fulfilled the inhibition of the
β-hydride elimination in the catalytic cycle and minimized the
protonolysis of arylboronic acids
