Intramolecular Diamination of Alkenes with Palladium(II)/Copper(II) Bromide and IPy2BF4: The Role of Halogenated Intermediates

The oxidative intramolecular diamination of alkenes with tethered ureas and related groups as the nitrogen source has been investigated both with the iodonium reagent IPy(2)BF(4) (Py=pyridine) and under palladium catalysis in the presence of copper(II) bromide as a reoxidant. For terminal alkenes, the two procedures enable selective and high-yielding transformations. Studies with deuterated material led to the conclusion that the reactions proceed through different stereochemical pathways. An advanced protocol for palladium-catalyzed diamination through six-membered-ring annulation was also developed, and the first examples of the intramolecular diamination of internal alkenes are described. In this case, the same stereochemical outcome was observed for the iodonium-promoted and palladium-catalyzed transformations. On this basis, it was possible to determine the importance of aminohalogenated intermediates in both diamination reactions. Overall, the disclosed procedures broaden significantly the synthetic applicability of the oxidative intramolecular diamination of alkenes.
