Abstract

The utilization of readily available amino acids, which is not only an oxygen nucleophile but also a nitrogen nucleophile, in palladium-catalyzed allylic substitution is realized under mild conditions. The chemoselectivity and multiple allylation are controlled by adjusting the reaction conditions. This represents the first example of this convenient access to valuable N,O-diallylated amino acids. Under the title conditions, a range of amino acids (α-, β-, γ-) and dipeptides can be readily converted in to the corresponding allylic products with excellent yields (67 examples, up to 99% yield) as well as good functional group tolerance.
