Article Abstract

An atom-economic protocol for the efficient and highly chemo- and stereoselective -hydroarylation of ynamides with hydroxyarenes catalyzed by B(CF) has been developed. Use of readily available starting materials, low catalyst loading, mild reaction conditions, a broad substrate scope, ease of scale-up, and versatile functionalizations of the enamide products make this approach very practical and attractive.

ConspectusControlling selectivity through manipulation of reaction intermediates remains one of the most enduring challenges in organic chemistry, providing novel solutions for selective C-C π-bond functionalization. This approach, guided by activation principles, provides an effective method for selective functional group installation, enabling direct synthesis of organic molecules that are inaccessible through conventional pathways. In particular, the selective functionalization of N-conjugated allenes and alkynes has emerged as a promising research focus, driven by advances in controlling reactive intermediates and activation strategies.

Regioselective C-H alkenylation of -dialkylanilines with ynamides was developed using AgNTf as a catalyst. This approach represents a facile hydroarylation of ynamides, allowing for the introduction of an alkenyl group exclusively at the position of aniline derivatives. As a result, a series of 4-alkenyl -dialkylanilines were synthesized with excellent regioselectivities.
