RESUMO
This article describes continued studies on Pd-catalyzed alkene diamination reactions between N-allylguanidines or ureas and O-benzoylhydroxylamine derivatives, which serve as N-centered electrophiles. The transformations generate cyclic guanidines and ureas bearing dialkylaminomethyl groups in moderate to good yield. We describe new mechanistic experiments that have led to a revised mechanistic hypothesis that involves a key oxidative addition of the electrophile to a PdII complex, followed by reductive elimination from PdIV to form the alkyl carbon-nitrogen bond. In addition, we demonstrate that acac, not phosphine, serves as a key ligand for palladium. Moreover, simple acac derivatives bearing substituted aryl groups outperform acac in the catalytic reactions, and phosphines inhibit catalysis in many cases. These discoveries have led to a significant expansion in the scope of this chemistry, which now allows for the coupling of a variety of cyclic amines, acyclic secondary amines, and primary amines. In addition, we also demonstrate that these new conditions allow for the use of amide nucleophiles, in addition to guanidines and ureas.

The Pd-catalyzed alkene carboheteroarylation of aryl and alkenyl triflate electrophiles bearing pendant alkenes with heteroaromatic nucleophiles affords substituted carbocycles with 3-indolyl or 3-pyrrolyl groups. The products are obtained in moderate to good yields, and the use of alkenyl triflate substrates produces products with high diastereoselectivities. The transformation is believed to proceed via a Friedel-Crafts-like reaction between the heteroaromatic nucleophile and an intermediate electrophilic palladium complex.

The Pd-catalyzed coupling of N-allylguanidines or N-allylureas with O-benzoylhydroxylamine derivatives affords cyclic guanidines or cyclic ureas bearing dialkylaminomethyl groups. The desired products are obtained in good yield, and substrates bearing substituents at the allylic position are transformed with moderate diastereoselectivity. The mechanism of these reactions appears to involve anti-aminopalladation of the alkene, followed by a rare sp3C-sp3N bond-forming reductive elimination from an alkylpalladium complex that contains ß-hydrogen atoms.
RESUMO
Utilizing rhodium catalysis, aryl nucleophiles generated via carbon-carbon single bond activation successfully undergo oxidative coupling with Michael acceptors. The reaction scope encompasses a broad range of nucleophiles generated from quinolinyl ketones as well as a series of electron deficient terminal alkenes, illustrating the broad potential of intersecting carbon-carbon bond activation with synthetically useful coupling methodologies. The demonstrated oxidative coupling produces a range of cinnamyl derivatives, several of which are challenging to prepare via conventional routes.
