The first catalytic strategy to harness imidate radicals for C-H functionalization has been developed. This iodine-catalyzed approach enables β C-H amination of alcohols by an imidate-mediated radical relay. In contrast to our first-generation, (super)stoichiometric protocol, this catalytic method enables faster and more efficient reactivity. Furthermore, lower oxidant concentration affords broader functional group tolerance, including alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, carbonyls, and heteroarenes. Mechanistic experiments interrogating the electronic nature of the key 1,5 H-atom transfer event are included, as well as probes for chemo-, regio-, and stereo-selectivity.

We report the development of Pd(II)/cis-aryl sulfoxide-oxazoline (cis-ArSOX) catalysts for asymmetric C-H alkylation of terminal olefins with a variety of synthetically versatile nucleophiles. The modular, tunable, and oxidatively stable ArSOX scaffold is key to the unprecedented broad scope and high enantioselectivity (37 examples, avg. > 90% ee). Pd(II)/cis-ArSOX is unique in its ability to effect high reactivity and catalyst-controlled diastereoselectivity on the alkylation of aliphatic olefins. We anticipate that this new chiral ligand class will find use in other transition metal catalyzed processes that operate under oxidative conditions.

The 1,3-diamine motif appears in numerous complex molecules, yet there are few methods for the stereoselective construction of this moiety. Herein, we demonstrate a stereocontrolled synthesis of 1,3-diamines, which bear up to three contiguous stereogenic centers, through benzylic ring-opening of aziridines with 2-azaallyl anion nucleophiles. Reactions proceed efficiently (yield up to 95%), diastereoselectively (dr up to >20:1), site selectively, and enantiospecifically to deliver products with differentiated amino groups.
