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.

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.
