Remote hydrofunctionalizations of alkenes incorporate functional groups distal to existing carbon-carbon double bonds. While remote carbonylations are well-known, remote hydrofunctionalizations are most common for addition of relatively nonpolar B-H, Si-H, and C-H bonds with alkenes. We report a system for the remote hydroamination of disubstituted alkenes to functionalize an alkyl chain selectively at the subterminal, unactivated, methylene position. Critical to the high regioselectivity and reaction rates are the electronic properties of the substituent on the amine and the development of the ligand DIP-Ad-SEGPHOS by evaluating the steric and electronic effects of ligand modules on reactivity and selectivity. The remote hydroamination is compatible with a broad scope of alkenes and aminopyridines and enables the regioconvergent synthesis of amines from an isomeric mixture of alkenes. The products can be derivatized by nucleophilic aromatic substitution on the amino substituent with a variety of nucleophiles.

Catalytic regio- and enantioselective hydroamination of less activated internal alkenes presents a challenge to synthetic chemists due to their low reactivity and the difficulty in simultaneously controlling regio- and enantioselectivities. Here, we report an iridium-catalyzed enantioselective hydroamination of internal alkenes directed by an amide. The amide group on the alkene effectively directs the catalyst to overcome the low reactivity and control the regioselectivity and the enantiotopic face selection.

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.

Primary amines serve as key synthetic precursors to most other -containing compounds, which are important in organic and medicinal chemistry. Herein, we present a NiH-catalyzed mild ipso- and remote hydroamination technique that utilizes organic azides as deprotectable primary amine sources. This strategy offers a highly flexible platform for the efficient construction of α-chiral branched primary amines, as well as linear primary amines.

Hydroamination of terminal alkenes represents a powerful and well-established way to introduce nitrogenous functionality to feedstock chemicals. Remote hydroamination reactions are far less known, and represent a way to functionalize unactivated C(sp) centers distal to the site of the alkene. These transformations commonly take place via metal hydride-mediated chain walking, and as such, regioselectivity can be challenging.
