Abstract

This paper reports a simple method for the synthesis of α,β-unsaturated olefinic amides from β-keto amides in the presence of NaBH4 and alkali. However, this reaction only leads to quantitatively reduction product of carbonyl compounds in the presence of NaBH4 and FeCl3. The structures of products were confirmed by 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra. In addition, a possible reaction mechanism was also proposed.
