Palladium-Catalyzed C(sp3)-H Nitrooxylation with tert-Butyl Nitrite and Molecular Oxygen

Herein, we report a Pd(II)-catalyzed nitrooxylation of unactivated methyl C(sp3)-H bonds using commercial available and easily manageable tert-butyl nitrite as the precursor of ONO2 radical under aerobic conditions. Environmentally benign molecular oxygen is used to initiate the generation of active radical reactant; it is also used as the terminal oxidant. A broad range of nitrooxylated aliphatic carboxamides were prepared in moderate to good yields under mild conditions.
