Pd(II)-Catalyzed Allylic C–H Amination for the Preparation of 1,2- and 1,3-Cyclic Ureas
摘要:
A general synthesis of 1,2- and 1,3-cyclic ureas is accomplished by intramolecular allylic C-H amination employing Pd(TFA)(2)/bis-sulfoxide as a catalyst. By careful modification of substrates and catalyst, a variety of 1,2-cyclic ureas are accessible from not previously employed terminal olefins substituted in allylic or vinylic positions. Furthermore, MS4A is found to be an effective additive for the synthesis of 1,3-cyclic ureas in good yields and excellent diastereoselectivities.
N-Boc Amines to Oxazolidinones via Pd(II)/Bis-sulfoxide/Brønsted Acid Co-Catalyzed Allylic C–H Oxidation
摘要:
A Pd(II)/bis-sulfoxide/Bronsted acid catalyzed allylic C-H oxidation reaction for the synthesis of oxazolidinones from simple N-Boc amines is reported. A range of oxazolidinones are furnished in good yields (avg 63%) and excellent diastereoselectivities (avg 15:1) to furnish products regioisomeric from those previously obtained using allylic C-H amination reactions. Mechanistic studies suggest the role of the phosphoric acid is to furnish a Pd(II)bis-sulfoxide phosphate catalyst that promotes allylic C-H cleavage and pi-allylPd functionalization with a weak, aprotic oxygen nucleophile and to assist in catalyst regeneration.

A delicate interplay of several kinetically labile ligands is required for reactions that proceed through serial ligand catalysis mechanisms. An investigation of the disruption of this balance has enabled the development of a method for the intermolecular allylicCH alkylation of unactivated as well as activated α‐olefins (see example, Bn=benzyl).
Chiral aldimines derived from phenylglycinol were diastereoselectively allylated with indium powder/allyl bromide in alcoholic solvents. Both aliphatic and aromatic aldimines provided good yield of the desired products with high diastereoselectivity. A racemization-free protocol for removal of the phenylglycinol auxiliary was also developed. The stereochemical assignment of the homoallylic amine was
