Palladium-catalyzed intramolecular diamination of acrylic esters using sulfamates as nitrogen source

摘要

An intramolecular diamination of acrylates is reported using sulfamates as nitrogen sources. This reaction proceeds under palladium(II) catalysis with copper bromide as oxidant and gives rise to anti-configured 2,3-diamino carboxylates as bicyclic sulfamate derivatives. An aminobrominated intermediate within the diamination reaction was isolated that allowed to clarify the reaction mechanism and to rationalize the observed preferential product stereochemistry.
