A novel and efficient palladium‐catalyzed hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes with aminals has been developed under mild reaction conditions, and allows the synthesis of a wide range of N‐alkyl linear amides in good yields with high regioselectivity. On the basis of this method, a cooperative catalytic system operating by the synergistic combination of palladium, paraformaldehyde, and acid was established
The weak acid has been identified as an efficient basicity-mask to overcome the basicitybarrierimparted by aliphaticamines in the Pd-catalyzed hydroaminocarbonylation, which enables both aromatic and aliphaticamines to be applicable in the palladium-catalyzedhydroaminocarbonylation reaction. Notably, by using this protocol, the marketed herbicide of Propanil and drug of Fentanyl could be easily
