Sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium, ammonium and tetramethylammonium tetraphenylborates were studied by both positive and negative ion electrospray mass spectrometry. An affinity order of Cs+ > Rb+ > K+ Na+ was obtained. The results obtained were compared with both calculations and solid-state structures, where available. The previously reported high affinity of caesium for tetraphenylborate concluded from NMR experiments was confirmed for the gas phase. The affinity does not appear to result from steric effects and a cation-pi interaction seems likely. In the positive ion mode, a unique acetonitrile complex of NaBPh4 was observed.

Conventional approaches to Pd-catalyzed alkene 1,2-carboamination rely upon the combination of a nucleophilic nitrogen-based component and an internal C-based or external oxidant. In this study, we outline an umpolung approach, which is triggered by oxidative initiation at an electrophilic N-based component and employs "standard" organometallic nucleophiles to introduce the new carbon-based fragment. Specifically, oxidative addition of a Pd(0)-catalyst into the N-O bond of O-pentafluorobenzoyl oxime esters generates imino-Pd(II) intermediates, which undergo 5-exo cyclization with sterically diverse alkenes. The resultant alkyl-Pd(II) intermediates are intercepted by organometallic nucleophiles or alcohols, under carbonylative or noncarbonylative conditions, to provide 1,2-carboamination products. This approach provides, for the first time, a unified strategy for achieving alkene 1,2-amino-acylation, -carboxylation, -arylation, -vinylation, and -alkynylation. For carbonylative processes, orchestrated protodecarboxylation of the pentafluorobenzoate leaving group underpins reaction efficiency. This process is likely a key feature in related Narasaka-Heck cyclizations and accounts for the efficacy of O-pentafluorobenzoyl oxime esters in aza-Heck reactions of this type.
