A Pd(0)-catalyzed diamination of terminal olefins at allylic and homoallylic carbons via formal C-H activation under solvent-free conditions
This paper describes a novel diamination process of terminal olefins at allylic and homoallylic carbons via formal C-H activation using di-tert-butyldiaziridinone as nitrogen source and Pd(PPh3)(4) as catalyst. A wide variety of terminal olefins can be effectively diaminated in good yields with high stereoselectivity.
