An exploration of the scope and limitations of Pd(O)-catalyzed intramolecular coupling reactions of amino-tethered aryl halides and ketones has been conducted. Two different and competitive reaction pathways starting from ω-(2-haloanilino) alkanones, enolate arylation and addition to the carbonyl group, have been observed, while ω-(2-halobenzylamino) alkanones exclusively underwent the enolate arylation process. The dichotomy between ketone α-arylation and carbonyl-addition in the reactions of ω-(2-haloanilino) alkanones has been rationalized by the intermediacy of unprecedented four-membered azapalladacycles, from which X-ray data and chemical behavior are reported.
