Intermolecular Radical Mediated Anti-Markovnikov Alkene Hydroamination Using N-Hydroxyphthalimide
Lardy, Samuel W.,Schmidt, Valerie A.
, p. 12318 - 12322 (2018)
An intermolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of alkenes has been developed using triethyl phosphite and N-hydroxyphthalimide. The process tolerates a wide range of alkenes, including vinyl ethers, silanes, and sulfides as well as electronically unbiased terminal and internal alkenes. The resultant N-alkylphthalimides can readily be transformed to the corresponding primary amines. Mechanistic probes indicate that the process is mediated via a phosphite promoted radical deoxygenation of N-hydroxyphthalimide to access phthalimidyl radicals.

Metal-hydride hydrogen atom transfer (MHAT) functionalizes alkenes with predictable branched (Markovnikov) selectivity. The breadth of these transformations has been confined to π-radical traps; no sp3 electrophiles have been reported. Here we describe a Mn/Ni dual catalytic system that hydroalkylates unactivated olefins with unactivated alkyl halides, yielding aliphatic quaternary carbons.
