RESUMO
Allylamines are important building blocks in the synthesis of bioactive compounds. The direct coupling of allylic C-H bonds and commonly available amines is a major synthetic challenge. An allylic C-H amination of 1,4-dienes has been accomplished by palladium catalysis. With aromatic amines, branch-selective allylic aminations are favored to generate thermodynamically unstable Z-allylamines. In addition, more basic aliphatic cyclic amines can also engage in the reaction, but linear dienyl allylic amines are the major products.

In the presence of visible-light photoredox and chiral phosphate catalysts, a novel asymmetric Friedel-Crafts reaction of indoles and readily accessible α-amino acid derived redox-active esters is established to afford enantioenriched 1-indolyl-1-alkylamine derivatives in moderate to high yields and with high levels of enantioselectivities. This method not only shows a mild and efficient alternative for the in situ generation of N-acyl imines but also indicates the feasibility of a multicatalyst system for asymmetric photoredox catalysis.
RESUMO
A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular allylic C-H amination controlled by a chiral phosphoramidite ligand was established for the preparation of various substituted chiral hydropyrimidinones, the precursors of hydropyrimidines, in high yields with high enantioselectivities. In particular, dienyl sodium N-sulfonyl amides bearing an arylethene-1-sulfonyl group underwent a sequential allylic C-H amination and intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction to produce chiral fused tricyclic tetrahydropyrimidinone frameworks in high yields and with high levels of stereoselectivity. Significantly, this method was used as the key step in an asymmetric synthesis of letermovir.
