A new palladium-catalyzed highly regioselective allylic CâH amination of alkenes with NFSI in the presence of a catalytic amount of water was developed and successfully expanded to Selectfluor-mediated palladium-catalyzed aminations of alkenes with N-tosylcarbamates in water at room temperature.
An efficient route to prepare 3-amino allylic alcohols in excellent regio- and stereoselectivity in the presence of bases by orangoselenium catalysis has been developed. In the absence of bases alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes were formed in up to 97% yield. Control experiments reveal that the hydroxy group is crucial for the direct amination.
The copper-catalyzed ring-opening reactions of cyclopropanes by N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide toward N-allylsulfonamides
In this paper, we reported a copper-catalyzed ring-openingreaction of arylcyclopropanes by N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide, leading to N-allylsulfonamides in moderate to good yields. This procedure tolerated bromo, fluoro, trifluoromethyl, phenyl and alkyl groups in the phenyl, proceeding with a sequential ring-opening of arylcyclopropanes, and copper-mediated β-H elimination of alkyl radical.
