Abstract

A palladium-catalyzed carboamination reaction of γ-N-arylamino alkenes with vinyl bromides that affords N-aryl-2-allyl pyrrolidines is described. These reactions proceed with high diastereoselectivity for the formation of trans-2,3- and cis-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidines. Conditions for a tandem N-arylation/carboamination sequence that leads to the formation of an N-aryl-2-allyl pyrrolidine or indoline via the coupling of a primary γ-amino alkene, an aryl bromide, and a vinyl bromide are also reported. The mechanism of the carboamination reactions and the origin of unexpected products that formally derive from rearrangement of the vinyl bromide are discussed.
