Generation of chromioenamines by reduction of O-acetyloximes with chromium(II) and their application.
Chromioenamines can be generated by treatment of O-acetyloximes with chromium(II) via two steps of one-electron reduction and successive isomerization, and the species react with aldehydes to give gamma-amino alcohols after reduction with LiAlH4.
