Gold supported on hydroxyapatite as a versatile multifunctional catalyst for the direct tandem synthesis of imines and oximes.
Two birds with one auric stone: The title system acts as a highly efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the one-pot tandem synthesis of imines or oximes from alcohols and the corresponding amines under mild conditions (see scheme; HAP = hydroxyapatite).
