Vicinal diamines are a common motif found in biologically active molecules. The hydroamination of allyl amine derivatives is a powerful approach for the synthesis of substituted 1,2-diamines. Herein, the rhodium-catalyzed hydroamination of primary and secondary allylic amines using diverse amine nucleophiles, including primary, secondary, acyclic, and cyclic aliphatic amines to access a wide range of unsymmetrical vicinal diamines, is presented. The utility of this methodology is further demonstrated through the rapid synthesis of several bioactive molecules and analogs.

Regioselective intermolecular carboamination of allylamines nucleopalladation: empowering three-component synthesis of vicinal diamines.

An intermolecular carboamination reaction of allyl amines under Pd(ii)-catalysis is reported, expediting the synthesis of valuable vicinal diamines embedded in a functionally enriched linear carbon framework with high yields and exclusive Markovnikov selectivity. Central to our approach is the strategic use of a removable picolinamide auxiliary, which directs the regioselectivity during aminopalladation and stabilizes the crucial 5,5-palladacycle intermediate. This stabilization facilitates oxidative addition to carbon electrophiles, enabling the simultaneous incorporation of diverse aryl/styryl groups as well as important amine motifs, such as sulfoximines and anilines, across carbon-carbon double bonds.

Enantioenriched unsymmetrical vicinal diamines are important basic structural motifs. While catalytic asymmetric intermolecular 1,2-diamination of carbon-carbon double bonds represents the most straightforward approach for preparing enantioenriched vicinal-diamine-containing heterocycles, these reactions are often limited to the installation of undifferentiated amino functionalities through metal catalysis and/or the use of stoichiometric amounts of oxidants. Here, we report organocatalytic enantioselective unsymmetrical 1,2-diaminations based on the rational design of a bifunctional 1,2-diamination reagent, namely, azocarboxamides (ACAs).

Metal-free photoredox catalysts built upon a pyrene core were developed for carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions. Among these catalysts, a pyrene derivative containing a urea moiety effectively facilitated the reductive coupling of aromatic carbonyl and imine compounds under blue LED irradiation. This process provided the corresponding vicinal diols and diamines in good yields.

A unique direct asymmetric synthesis of α-aminoimines is realized, through rapid and exclusive mono-allylation of chiral bis-N-sulfinylimines using allylboronic acids. The highly selective allylation was possible as electrophilic imine functional group in the product α-aminoimines remained unreactive towards allyl boronic acid nucleophiles. Notably, by varying the geometry and chiral auxiliary, all four isomers of the α-aminoimines were accessed from readily available precursors.
