Catalytic cross double carbonylation of secondary amines and alcohols proceeds in the presence of [PdCl2(MeCN)2] and CuI under carbon monoxide (80 atm) and oxygen (5 atm). Catalytic intramolecular double carbonylation of β-amino alcohols gives morpholine-2,3-diones, which are excellent protecting compounds of amino alcohols and important precursors for biologically active nitrogen compounds. In contrast, catalytic single carbonylation of β-amino alcohols under a mixture (1 : 1) of carbon monoxide and oxygen (1.0 atm) proceeds to give oxazolidin-2-ones selectively. The reaction can be explained by assuming a mechanism which includes intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the hydroxy group of (hydroxyethyl)aminocarbonyl ligands on the CO ligand of the carbamoylpalladium(II) complexes, followed by reductive elimination to give morpholine-2,3-diones. In contrast, direct nucleophilic attack of the hydroxy group to the carbamoyl group affords oxazolidin-2-ones. As a common intermediate for the double and single carbonylations, carbamoylpalladium(II) complex has been isolated by the reaction of [PdCl2(PMe3)2] with β-amino alcohol under CO. The present double carbonylation of amino alcohols provides a novel and convenient method for synthesis of α-oxo carboxylic acids. Thus, the morpholine-2,3-diones obtained undergo reaction with Grignard reagents chemoselectively at the ester positions to give 2-substituted 2-hydroxymorpholin-3-ones, which undergo acid hydrolysis to give α-oxo carboxylic acids.

Aromatic aldehydes (ArCHO: quinoline-8-carbaldehyde and o-(N,N-dimethylamino)benzaldehyde) react with tetrachloropalladate(II) through a C-H activation reaction to give the corresponding aroylpalladium complexes, which afford α-keto amides in high yields upon carbonylation with piperidine.Attempts for double carbonylation through ortho-palladation reactions of aromatic hydrocarbons are also reported.

Various aryl halides are catalytically converted into α-keto amides and amides on treatment with secondary amines and carbon monoxide.Palladium complexes containing tertiary phosphine ligands, particularly diphenylmethylphosphine and 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane, are most effective among other transition-metal complexes.Detailed examination of factors controlling the reaction rates and selectivity for α-keto amide formation revealed the following characteristics of the reactions. (a) Reactivity of phenyl halide decreases in the order PhI > PhBr >> PhCl. (b) Oxidative addition of phenyl bromide constitutes the rate-determining step in double carbonylation of phenyl bromide, whereas in the reaction of phenyl iodide the rate determinig step is associated with the reaction of a catalitically active palladium species with carbon monoxide. (c) Introduction of an electron-withdrawing substituent into the para position of phenyl halide enhances the reactivity but decreases the selectivity for α-keto amide. (d) Employment of amines of high basicity (pKb Et2NH > piperidine > hexamethyleneimine > Me2NH > pyrrolidine probably reflects the decrease in steric bulkiness of amines. (f) Although primary amines are in general not suitable for the double carbonylation, tert-butylamine can be used because of its inertness to the product α-keto amide.Reactivity of trans-PdPh(I)(PMePh2)2 and trans-Pd(COPh)I(PMePh2)2, supposed intermediates in the catalytic reaction of PhI, toward amines and CO was examined.The relative reactivity of six secondary amines with the benzoylpalladium complex increasing in the order Pr2NH Et2NH piperidine Me2NH hexamethyleneimine pyrrolidine was found to be inversely correlated with decreasing selectivity order for α-keto amide formation in the catalytic systems.On the basis of the experimental results, a mechanism consisting of two catalytic cycles to produce α-keto amides and amides has been proposed.
