The development of efficient and sustainable methods to access saturated N-heterocycles is of great importance because of the prevalence of these structures in natural products and bioactive compounds. Pd-catalyzed aza-Wacker type cyclization is a powerful method and provides access to N-heterocycles bearing an alkene moiety available for further synthetic manipulations from readily available materials. Herein we disclose a catalyst- and reagent-free formal aza-Wacker type cyclization reaction for the synthesis of functionalized saturated N-heterocycles. Key to the success is to conduct the reactions in a continuous-flow electrochemical reactor without adding supporting electrolyte or additives. The reactions are characterized by broad tolerance of di-, tri- and tetrasubstituted alkenes.

Ligand-enabled aza-Heck cyclizations and cascades of N-(pentafluorobenzoyloxy)carbamates are described. These studies encompass the first examples of efficient non-biased 6-exo aza-Heck cyclizations. The methodology provides direct and flexible access to carbamate protected pyrrolidines and piperidines.

Aza-Heck cyclizations initiated by oxidative addition of Pd0-catalysts into the N?O bond of N-(pentafluoro-benzoyloxy)sulfonamides are described. These studies, which encompass only the second class of aza-Heck reaction developed to date, provide direct access to diverse N-heterocyclic ring systems.
