Abstract

A copper-catalysed hydroamination reaction of N-allenylsulfonamides with amines has been developed through a rational approach based on mechanistic studies. The reaction is promoted by a simple copper(I) catalyst and proceeds at room temperature with complete regioselectivity and excellent stereoselectivity towards linear (E)-N-(3-aminoprop-1-enyl)sulfonamides. Density Functional Theory (DFT) studies allow interpreting the key role of unsaturated substituents on nitrogen as ancillary coordinating moieties for the copper catalyst.

  • 9 Bäckvall and co-workers have already observed a similar influence of pendant allyl groups in a copper-catalysed reaction. N-Allyl and N-aryl secondary sulfonamides could be coupled with bromoallenes by the use of a copper catalyst giving N-allenyl-N-allylsulfonamides, but the reaction failed when saturated N-substituents were employed.
