Palladium-Catalyzed Three-Component Selective Aminoallylation of Diazo Compounds

Pengcheng Ou et al.

Summary: In this study, a Xantphos-containing dinuclear palladium complex was used to catalyze the geminal aminoallylation of diazocarbonyl compounds, providing a selective synthesis of various quaternary alpha-amino esters. The reaction did not proceed through direct N-H insertion, allylic alkylation of amino nucleophiles, or diene formation. Mechanistic investigations indicated that a relayed pathway via allylation or a [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement was unlikely.

Biqiong Hong et al.

Summary: This review summarizes the strategies for introducing various bridging ligands such as carboxylic acids, amide, and phosphoric acids in dirhodium(II)-catalyzed organic reactions, which significantly enhance the activity and selectivity of the metal complexes involved. The newly explored reactivity of dirhodium(II) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbenes or phosphines as axial ligands is discussed, as well as the asymmetric tries where the stereo-induction solely comes from the axial ligand. The reactions catalyzed by inherent chiral ortho-metalated dirhodium(II)/phosphine complexes are also examined.
