Abstract

Abstract An efficient magnesium bistrifluoromethanesulfonimide [Mg (NTf 2) 2] catalyzed hydroalkylation of aromatic olefins with 1, 3-diketones under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The reactions proceed smoothly to give the desired products in good yields in short reaction times.
