N-(Aryloxy)imines, readily accessible by condensation/tautomerization of (pseudo)benzylic primary amines and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone, undergo efficient allylation to afford a wide range of homoallylic primary amines following hydrolytic workup. Deprotonation of N-(aryloxy)imines generates a delocalized 2-azaallyl anion-type nucleophile that engages in dearomative C-C bond-forming reactions with allylpalladium(II) electrophiles generated from allylic tert-butyl carbonates. This reactivity umpolung enables the formal α-allylation of (pseudo)benzylic primary amines. Mechanistic studies reveal that the apparent regioselectivity of the desired bond-forming event is a convergent process that is initiated by unselective allylation of N-(aryloxy)imines to give several regioisomeric species, which subsequently rearrange via stepwise [1,3]- or concerted [3,3]-sigmatropic shifts, ultimately converging to provide the desired regioisomer of the amine products.

Three synthetic strategies for the construction of tert-butyl (E)-3-arylprop-2-en-1-ol carbonates are described. Complementary approaches employing Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and cross-metathesis reaction gave moderate yields of the title compounds in one-step, both methods are suitable for high-throughput and parallel chemistry. A detailed investigation into the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction is provided along with the studies on the synthesis of pinacolyl 1-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)propenol-3-ylboronate, the key building block. Conventional synthesis of the title compounds via the Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction as a key step in a three-step-one-purification protocol was optimized and the results are compared with those of the latter reactions.
