Abstract

The homogeneously catalyzed hydrogenation of 1,3-oxazolidines affording unsymmetrically substituted 2-N-(dialkylamino)ethanols is reported showing for the first time that Rh(I) catalysts based on chelating diphosphines can be advantageous for this reaction.

Key words

hydrogenation - transition metals - catalysis - amino alcohols
