RESUMEN
Aminoboration of simple alkenes with nitrogen nucleophiles remains an unsolved problem in synthetic chemistry; this transformation can be catalyzed by palladium via aminopalladation followed by transmetalation with a diboron reagent. However, this catalytic process faces inherent challenges with instability of the alkylpalladium(II) intermediate toward ß-hydride elimination. Herein, we report a palladium/iron cocatalyzed aminoboration, which enables this transformation. We demonstrate these conditions on a variety of alkenes and norbornenes with an array of common nitrogen nucleophiles. In the developed strategy, the iron cocatalyst is crucial to achieving the desired reactivity by serving as a halophilic Lewis acid to release the transmetalation-active cationic alkylpalladium intermediate. Furthermore, it serves as a redox shuttle in the regeneration of the Pd(II) catalyst by reactivation of nanoparticulate palladium.
RESUMEN
Vicinal diamines are a common motif found in biologically active molecules. The hydroamination of allyl amine derivatives is a powerful approach for the synthesis of substituted 1,2-diamines. Herein, the rhodium-catalyzed hydroamination of primary and secondary allylic amines using diverse amine nucleophiles, including primary, secondary, acyclic, and cyclic aliphatic amines to access a wide range of unsymmetrical vicinal diamines, is presented. The utility of this methodology is further demonstrated through the rapid synthesis of several bioactive molecules and analogs.

A multi-component coupling using organoaluminum reagents, silylated amines, and aldehydes results in the formation of tertiary amines. Both alkenyl- and alkylaluminum reagents undergo reaction with iminium ion substrates for which the corresponding Petasis borono-Mannich reactions are unsuccessful.
RESUMEN
During our efforts toward the synthesis of naturally occurring polyprenylated polycyclic acylphloroglucinol using a Au(I)-catalyzed 6-endo dig carbocyclization, we isolated stable vinyllic gold intermediates. Optimization lead to isolated yields of up to 98%, using 2-(di-tert-butylphosphino)biphenyl as the ligand. This transformation is derived from a silyl rearrangement that can be fully controlled according to the nature of the substituent on the ynone. This selective transformation does not require basic conditions to prevent protodeauration. These vinylgold complexes are the first isolated intermediates during a silyl migration with gold(I). More than 16 new organogold complexes were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Reactivity of these complexes is also presented.
