Rhodium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Intramolecular Hydroamination of Allenes

The rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular hydroamination of sulfonyl amides with terminal allenes is reported. It provides selective access to 5- and 6-membered N-heterocycles, scaffolds found in a large range of different bioactive compounds. Moreover, gram scale reactions, as well as the application of suitable product transformations to natural products and key intermediates thereof are demonstrated.

Opening the Way to Catalytic Aminopalladation/Proxicyclic Dehydropalladation: Access to Methylidene γ-Lactams

A new aerobic intramolecular palladium(II)-based catalytic system that triggers aminopalladation/dehydropalladation of N-sulfonylalkenylamides to give the corresponding methylidene γ-lactams has been identified. Use of triphenylphosphine and chloride anio

Dormant versus evolving aminopalladated intermediates: Toward a unified mechanistic scenario in PdII-catalyzed aminations

PdII-catalyzed alkene aminopalladation and allylic Ci￡H activation are two competing reaction sequences sharing the same reaction conditions. This study aimed at understanding the factors that bias one or the other path in the intramolecular oxidative cyclization of two types of N-tosyl amidoalkenes. The results obtained are in accord with the initial generation of a high-energy cyclic (5- or 6-membered) aminopalladated intermediate. However, this latter species can evolve only if the following specific conditions are met: the availability of distocyclic β-H elimination pathway, the presence of a strong terminal oxidant, or the availability of a carbopalladation pathway. Conversely, the cyclic alkylpalladium complex is only a latent species in equilibrium with the initial substrate and cannot evolve. Such a reactivity hurdle leaves the way open for alternative reactivities such as allylic Ci￡H activation of the olefinic substrate to generate a η3-allyl complex followed by its interception by the nitrogen nucleophile, [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, or decomposition. This study proposes a unifying mechanistic picture that connects these competing mechanisms. Asleep or awake? Unsaturated N nucleophiles react through two competing pathways under PdII catalysis: Ci￡H allylic activation and aminopalladation. New data are in accord with the initial generation of a high-energy cyclic aminopalladated intermediate (API) that can either evolve along different pathways such as β-H elimination, oxidation, or carbopalladation, or lay dormant, the latter leading to alternative types of reactivity, such as allylic Ci￡H activation or [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, gaining the upper hand (see scheme; Ts=p-toluenesulfonyl).

Robust synthesis of N-sulfonylazetidine building blocks via ring contraction of α-bromo N-sulfonylpyrrolidinones

A simple and robust one-pot nucleophilic addition-ring contraction of α-bromo N-sulfonylpyrrolidinones has been achieved toward α-carbonylated N-sulfonylazetidines. In the presence of potassium carbonate, various nucleophiles, such as alcohols, phenols or anilines, have been efficiently incorporated into the azetidine derivatives. Moreover, the α-bromopyrrolidinone precursors could be selectively obtained in good yields by monobromination of cheap and easily available N-sulfonyl-2-pyrrolidinone derivatives.

Bronsted base-modulated Regioselective Pd-catalyzed intramolecular aerobic oxidative amination of alkenes: Formation of seven-membered amides and evidence for allylic C-H activation

A novel palladium-catalyzed intramolecular aerobic oxidative allylic C-H amination of olefins has been developed. Bronsted base can modulate the regioselectivity, favoring the formation of 7-membered rings. Mechanistic studies using deuterium-labeled substrates as probes support a rate-determining allylic C-H activation/irreversible reductive elimination pathway.
