A palladium-catalyzed hydroamination reaction is the key step in a stereoselective synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted and 2,3,5-trisubsituted morpholines from carbamate-protected aziridines. Aziridines are selectively attacked at the more substituted position by unsaturated alcohol nucleophiles using Lewis acid catalysts. Palladium-catalyzed hydroamination of the resulting aminoalkenes gives morpholines as a single diastereomer in excellent yield.

Tailored chiral phosphoramidites support highly enantioselective Pd catalysts for asymmetric aminoalkylative amination.

Nat Commun

Even though tuning electronic effect of chiral ligands has proven to be a promising method for designing efficient catalysts, the potential to achieve highly selective reactions by this strategy remains largely unexplored. Here, we report a palladium-catalyzed enantioselective ring-closing aminoalkylative amination of aminoenynes enabled by rationally tuning the remote electronic property of 1,1'-binaphthol-derived phosphoramidites. With a tailored 6,6'-CN-substituted 1,1'-binaphthol-derived phosphoramidite as a ligand, a broad range of aromatic amines are compatible with this reaction, allowing the efficient synthesis of a series of enantioenriched exocyclic allenylamines bearing saturated N-heterocycles with up to >99% enantiomeric excess.

A palladium-catalyzed divergent reaction of primary benzamides using norbornene (NBE) derivatives as a controlled switch is reported. When NBE is used as a mediator, indanones are synthesized with moderate to good yields a Catellani reaction that involves sequential -C-H alkylation and -C-N bond cleavage annulation of primary benzamides. Employing norbornadiene (NBD) instead of NBE enables the assembly of -alkylamines by an intermolecular hydroamination reaction.

Here we report a palladium-catalyzed -Michael-type hydroamination of -(quinolin-8-yl)acrylamide with 2-pyridones. The use of a palladium catalyst enables the α-addition of 2-pyridones, resulting in the formation of a range of -substituted 2-pyridone carboxamides with yields ranging from 10% to 80%. Derivatization of the products highlights the utility of this transformation.

The first amidation of carbazoles at the N9 position palladium-catalyzed hydroamination of isocyanates is demonstrated. This simple, general and efficient method could deliver a wide range of carbazole--carboxamides in up to 99% yield. The salient features of this transformation include simple conditions with no need for a strong base, high chemo- and regio-selectivities and good functional group tolerance.

Palladium-catalyzed coupling of 4,5-dibromo-2,7,9,9-tetramethylacridan with two equivalents of 1,3-diisopropylimidazolin-2-imine afforded 4,5-bis(1,3-diisopropylimidazolin-2-imino)-2,7,9,9-tetramethylacridan, H[AII]. Reaction of the H[AII] pro-ligand with one equivalent of [M(CHSiMe)(THF)] (M = Y or Sc) yielded the base-free neutral dialkyl complexes [(AII)M(CHSiMe)] {M = Y (1) and Sc (2)}. The rigid AII pincer ligand affords a similar steric profile to the previously reported XA pincer ligand, but is monoanionic rather than dianionic.
