The first examples of rhodium-catalyzed carbonyl addition via hydrogen autotransfer are described, as illustrated in tandem butadiene-mediated carbonyl addition-redox isomerizations that directly convert primary alcohols to isobutyl ketones. Related reductive coupling-redox isomerizations of aldehyde reactants mediated by sodium formate also are reported. A double-labeling crossover experiment reveals that the rhodium alkoxide obtained upon carbonyl addition enacts redox isomerization without di ...[more]
