Catalytic enantioselective conjunctive cross-couplings that employ Grignard reagents are shown to furnish an array of nonracemic chiral organoboronic esters in an efficient and highly selective fashion. The utility of sodium triflate in facilitating this reaction is two-fold: it enables "ate" complex formation and overcomes catalytic inhibition by halide ions.

A Precise Route to Tetrasubstituted Allyl Amines via Regioselective Dicarbofunctionalization of Masked Propargyl Amines.
Org Lett

School of Chemistry, University of Hyderabad, Gachibowli 500046, Telangana, India.
Allyl amines are vital components in various biologically important molecules and play a significant role in their function. Presently, most methods are geared toward the preparation of di- and trisubstituted allyl amines, leaving a gap for the development of more versatile approaches. We herein describe an approach to yield tetrasubstituted allyl amines through palladium (Pd)-catalyzed regioselective dicarbofunctionalization of masked N-phthalimide-protected propargyl amines.

Article Synopsis
- Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are crucial in various fields like pharmaceuticals and materials science due to their ability to form C-C and C-X bonds selectively and efficiently.
- The development of new ligands and precatalysts, especially Pd(II)-N-heterocyclic carbene complexes, enhances reaction selectivity and reactivity while maintaining stability under mild conditions.
- The latest innovation includes the highly reactive chloro dimers of Pd(NHC) complexes, which can be easily synthesized in a one-pot process and are stable yet effective in catalyzing reactions.
Ion mobility mass spectrometry uncovers regioselectivity in the carboxylate-assisted C-H activation of palladium N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.

Carboxylate-assisted Pd-catalyzed C-H bond activation constitutes a mild and versatile synthetic tool to efficiently and selectively cleave inert C-H bonds. Herein, we demonstrate a simple method to experimentally evaluate both reactivity and selectivity in such systems using mass spectrometry (MS) methods. The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) cations [(NHC)PdX], bearing as X ligand bases commonly used to promote the C-H activation (carboxylates and bicarbonate), are generated in the gas-phase by ESI-MS.

Enolate alkylation and conjugate addition into an α,β-unsaturated system have served as long-standing strategic disconnections for the installation of α- or β-substituents on carbonyl-containing compounds. At the onset of our efforts to develop C-H activation reactions for organic synthesis, we set our eye toward developing asymmetric β-C-H activation reactions of aliphatic acids with the perspective that this bond-forming event could serve as a more flexible retrosynthetic surrogate for both canonical carbonyl-related asymmetric transformations.In this Account, we describe our early efforts using strongly coordinating chiral oxazolines to probe reaction mechanism and the stereochemical nature of the C-H cleavage transition state.

A Pd-catalyzed regio- and stereoselective alkynylallylation of a specific C-C σ bond in cyclopropenes, using allyl propiolates as both allylation and alkynylation reagents, has been achieved for the first time. By merging selective C(sp )-C(sp ) bond scission with conjunctive cross-couplings, this decarboxylative reorganization reaction features fascinating atom and step economy and provides an efficient approach to highly functionalized dienynes from readily available substrates. Without further optimization, gram-scale products can be easily obtained by such a simple, neutral, and low-cost catalytic system with high TONs.
