Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed alkenyl C-H activation/diamination reaction of cycloalkenyl bromoarenes with hydroxylamines is described. A wide range of tetrahydrocarbazoles and analogs has been prepared using fine-tuning bifunctional secondary hydroxylamines as the single-nitrogen sources. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the selective alkenyl C-H activation/diamination cascade process should build the N-heterocycles.
