Chemoselective Aerobic C3-Hydroxylation of Tetrahydroquinolines Catalyzed by a Hydrophobic Ni–Mn Hybrid Interface
Controlling the chemoselectivity of aerobic oxidation of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines (THQs) remains challenging because these substrates typically undergo preferential dehydrogenative aromatization to quinolines. Here we report a homologous series of linear carboxylate-modified hydrophobic Ni–Mn organic–inorganic hy...
