Ruthenium-Catalyzed Hydroamination of Unactivated Terminal Alkenes with Stoichiometric Amounts of Alkene and an Ammonia Surrogate by Sequential Oxidation and Reduction.

ABSTRACT: Hydroamination of alkenes catalyzed by transition-metal complexes is an atom-economical method for the synthesis of amines, but reactions of unactivated alkenes remain inefficient. Additions of N-H bonds to such alkenes catalyzed by iridium, gold, and lanthanide catalysts are known, but they have required a large excess of the alkene. New mechanisms for such processes involving metals rarely used previously for hydroamination could enable these reactions to occur with greater efficiency. We report ruthenium-catalyzed intermolecular hydroaminations of a variety of unactivated terminal alkenes without the need for an excess of alkene and with 2-aminopyridine as an ammonia surrogate to give the Markovnikov addition product. Ruthenium complexes have rarely been used for hydroaminations and have not previously catalyzed such reactions with unactivated alkenes. Identification of the catalyst resting state, kinetic measurements, deuterium labeling studies, and DFT computations were conducted and, together, strongly suggest that this process occurs by a new mechanism for hydroamination occurring by oxidative amination in concert with reduction of the resulting imine.

Iron-Catalyzed Hydroamination and Hydroetherification of Unactivated Alkenes.

Project description:The hydrofunctionalization of alkenes, explored for over 100 years, offers the potential for a direct, atom-economical approach to value-added products. While thermodynamically favored, the kinetic barrier to such processes necessitates the use of catalysts to control selectivity and reactivity. Modern variants typically rely on noble metals that require different ligands for each class of hydrofunctionalization, thereby limiting generality. This Letter describes a general iron-based system that catalyzes the hydroamination and hydroetherification of simple unactivated olefins.

Anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Unactivated Alkenes with Primary Alkyl Amines.

Project description:We report here a photocatalytic method for the intermolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of unactivated olefins with primary alkyl amines to selectively furnish secondary amine products. These reactions proceed through aminium radical cation (ARC) intermediates and occur at room temperature under visible light irradiation in the presence of an iridium photocatalyst and an aryl thiol hydrogen atom donor. Despite the presence of excess olefin, high selectivities are observed for secondary over tertiary amine products, even though the secondary amines are established substrates for ARC-based olefin amination under similar conditions.

One-pot anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of unactivated alkenes by hydrozirconation and amination.

Project description:A one-pot anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of alkenes is reported. The synthesis of primary and secondary amines from unactivated olefins was accomplished in the presence of a variety of functional groups. Hydrozirconation, followed by amination with nitrogen electrophiles, provides exclusive anti-Markovnikov selectivity. Most products are isolated in high yields without the use of column chromatography.

Desymmetrization of unactivated bis-alkenes <i>via</i> chiral Bronsted acid-catalysed hydroamination.

Project description:Although great success has been achieved in catalytic asymmetric hydroamination of unactivated alkenes using transition metal catalysis and organocatalysis, the development of catalytic desymmetrising hydroamination of such alkenes remains a tough challenge in terms of attaining a high level of stereocontrol over both remote sites and reaction centers at the same time. To address this problem, here we report a highly efficient and practical desymmetrising hydroamination of unactivated alkenes catalysed by chiral Brønsted acids with both high diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity. This method features a remarkably broad alkene scope, ranging from mono-substituted and gem-/1,2-disubstituted to the challenging tri- and tetra-substituted alkenes, to provide access to a variety of diversely functionalized chiral pyrrolidines bearing two congested tertiary or quaternary stereocenters with excellent efficiency under mild and user-friendly synthetic conditions. The key to success is indirect activation of unactivated alkenes by chiral Brønsted acids via a concerted hydroamination mechanism.

Development of highly efficient platinum catalysts for hydroalkoxylation and hydroamination of unactivated alkenes.

Project description:Hydrofunctionalization, the direct addition of an X-H (e.g., X=O, N) bond across an alkene, is a desirable strategy to make heterocycles that are important structural components of naturally occurring molecules. Described here is the design and discovery of "donor-acceptor"-type platinum catalysts that are highly effective in both hydroalkoxylation and hydroamination of unactivated alkenes over a broad range of substrates under mild conditions. A number of alkene substitution patterns are accommodated, including tri-substituted, 1,1-disubstituted, (E)-disubstituted, (Z)-disubstituted and even mono-substituted double bonds. Detailed mechanistic investigations suggest a plausible pathway that includes an unexpected dissociation/re-association of the electron-deficient ligand to form an alkene-bound "donor-acceptor"-type intermediate. These mechanistic studies help understand the origins of the high reactivity exhibited by the catalytic system, and provide a foundation for the rational design of chiral catalysts towards asymmetric hydrofunctionalization reactions.

Intermolecular Anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Unactivated Alkenes with Sulfonamides Enabled by Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer.

Project description:Here we report a catalytic method for the intermolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of unactivated alkenes using primary and secondary sulfonamides. These reactions occur at room temperature under visible light irradiation and are jointly catalyzed by an iridium(III) photocatalyst, a dialkyl phosphate base, and a thiol hydrogen atom donor. Reaction outcomes are consistent with the intermediacy of an N-centered sulfonamidyl radical generated via proton-coupled electron transfer activation of the sulfonamide N-H bond. Studies outlining the synthetic scope (>60 examples) and mechanistic features of the reaction are presented.

Intermolecular thiofunctionalizations were also achieved with simple alcohols or carboxylic acids as the nucleophiles.
