A Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allylic amination using aspartic acid derived P-chirogenic diaminophosphine oxides (DIAPHOXs) is described. Asymmetric allylic amination of both linear and cyclic substrates proceeded at room temperature to give the chiral allylic amines in 72-99% ee.
Asymmetric allylic aminations with aromatic amine nucleophiles using Pd-DIAPHOX catalyst systems are described. The asymmetric allylic aminations of various allylic carbonates proceeded using 2-5 mol % of the catalyst and BSA, providing the corresponding N-aryl chiral allylic amines in up to 99% ee for cyclic substrates, and in up to 97% ee for acyclic substrates.
