Aminations Reactions - Introduction
This work :
Types of amination reactions :
• Buchwald-Hartwig
• Nucleophilic
• Electrophilic
• C-H amination
Arene Aminations Reactions
• Nucleophilic (via benzyne)
Bronner, S. M.; Goetz, A. E.; Garg, N. K. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2011, 133, 3832
• Electrophilic (nitrogen source is oxidized)

Campbell, M. J.; Johnson, J. S. Org. Lett. 2007, 9, 1521.
Ideal Amination Reaction
Amination reactions typically need preactivation of either arene of amine
Ideal reaction : no preactivation needed !
Arene Aminations Reactions
• C-H amination

Kantak, A. A.; Potavathri, S.; Barham, R. A.; Romano, K. M.; DeBoef, B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2011, 133, 19960.
• Control of the site selectivity :
• Steric bias
• Electronic bias
• Directing group
• Mostly ortho to the DG or on the primary C-H bond.

Catellani Reaction

Catellani Reaction
De-insertion of the norbornene is a reversible step
Catellani propose that the reduction in steric hindrance at the Pd is the driving
force for the reaction
Ring strain in norbornene
24-27 kcal/mol

Meta-Substituted Arenes
Electron rich aryls give higher ratio of the meta product
It was shown that the fluorating agent is 11, a modified tBuBrettPhos
Intra vs intermolec mechanism still being investigated.

This Paper - Challenges
• Oxidant need to provide the amine
• Be stronger than aryl halide to avoid homo-Catellani reaction
• Not too strong to avoid destruction of NBE or Pd(0) catalyst
• Reductant need to be orthogonal to the oxidant
Proposed Mecanism

Control Reactions
Substrate Scope
b
25 mol % tri(2-furyl)phosphine, 2.0 equiv of amine and 3.0 equiv of Cs2CO3 were used.
Substrate Scope - Homodimerization
Electron poor substrate are good oxidant
Electron poor phosphine decreases the formation of unwanted dimerization product
Scope - Part 2
•
Mono-addition is very difficult to control.
Scope Part 3 : Amine
•
nBuNHOBz do not couple under these condition
Other Results
•
Aryl bromide (weaker oxidant)

Conclusion
• Arene-amination reaction at the ortho (vs ipso) position of
the halide
• 1st C-N bond forming Catellani reaction
• Complementary to the Buchwald-Hartwing amination
• Future work
• Expanding the scope to aryl bromides
• Mechanistic studies on the C-N bond formation
