and formation of a C−N and a C−H bond. Acyl, sulfonyl, or phosphinyl substituents acidify the N−H proton by 5−20 orders of magnitude and markedly reduce the nucleophilicity of the nitrogen.1 These strongly electron-withdrawing substituents fundamentally alter the reactivity of the N−H group, so that different product classes are obtained in catalytic addition reactions of amine- and amide-type substrates. Although the addition of amides and related compounds across C−C multiple bonds is sometimes also called hydroamination, such reactions appear to be more accurately designated as hydroamidations, because of the differences in substrates, reactivity, and products. In this Review, usage of the term hydroamidation is not limited to the substrate classes of amides, sulfonamides, and phosphonamides, but extended to structurally related compounds with a similar pKa range and reactivity, such as carbamates, lactams, ureas, amidines, guanidines, etc.

In Chinese folk medicine, extracts of the plant Carduus crispus are used for the treatment of cold, stomach ache, and rheumatism. An active ingredient of this plant, crispine A, displays cytotoxic activity and inhibits the growth of some human cancer cells.3,4 It has been synthesized via a sequence involving an intramolecular hydroamination of homopropargyl amine to generate 5,6-dihydro-8,9-dimethoxypyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline, and subsequent hydrogenation.3 (−)-Epimyrtine is an alkaloid isolated from Vaccinium myrtillus, and exhibits anticancer, antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activity.

Scheme 1. Enamines, Imines, and Enamides as Central Building Blocks
selective synthesis of chiral amines, amides, or amino acids, the combination of an addition of N−H nucleophiles to alkynes with an enantioselective hydrogenation of enamines/imines or enamides opens an efficient alternative to the challenging asymmetric addition of N−H nucleophiles to alkenes (see sections 4.1.4 and 4.1.6). Many metal complexes25 as well as organocatalysts26−28 are known to promote the hydrogenation of enamines or enamides. For example, Zhou et al. synthesized crispine A and other tertiary cyclic amines via iridium-catalyzed asymmetric enamine hydrogenations in 97% yield and with 90% enantiomeric excess (ee).29 β-Amino acids are obtained in high yields and ee by the organocatalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of enamines with trichlorosilane as the hydride donor and sigamide as the organocatalyst.30 Rhodium catalysts in combination with chiral phosphine ligands allow synthesizing chiral N-protected amino acids starting from enamides in high ee.31,32 Enamines/imines and enamides are versatile building blocks also for cycloadditions (3 and 4). They can be used as dienophiles in [4+2]-(hetero)cycloadditions (3), and incorporated into highly functionalized heterocycles.33,34 For example, Stevenson et al. described an yttrium-catalyzed Povarov reaction with 3-substituted imines and acyclic enamides.35 In this [4+2]-heterocycloaddition, the tetrahydroquinoline product is formed as a single regio- and diastereoisomer. N-Vinyl oxazolidinones can be used as chiral dienophiles, for example, in Eu(fod)3-catalyzed [4+2]-hetero-Diels−Alder reactions with inverse electron demand. Thus, (2S,4S)-N-2-deoxyglycosyloxazolidinones are accessible in high regio- and stereoselectivities starting from (4S)-dienophiles and β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters or vice versa.36 In the presence of Jacobsen’s CrIIIsalen-complex, conjugated enamides react with acroleins in an asymmetric hetero-Diels−Alder reaction to give substituted cyclohexenes in up to 95% yield and 97% ee.37 Terminal enamides are also effective synthons for constructing four-
hydroamination to give a pyrrolo[2,3-f ]indole derivative that was oxidized to the final product.10 Lansiumamide B is present in the leaves and fruits of Clausena lansium, which are used in Chinese medicine for the treatment of asthma and viral hepatitis.11 It has been obtained via the Ru-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of terminal alkynes.12 Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine is an essential motif in pharmacologically important molecules such as alpidem, which is extensively used to treat anxiety.13 A synthetic sequence involving a copper-catalyzed A3 coupling and in situ intramolecular hydroamination of the propargylaminopyridine intermediate (see Scheme 1) provides a convenient access to this compound.13 In addition to their relevance as part of bioactive naturally occurring products, enamines/imines and enamides are of substantial interest as building blocks (Scheme 1). Enamides are widely used as monomers in polymerization processes (1).14 One economically important building block for such polymerizations is N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP), which has been produced on a technical scale since 1939 via the addition of 2-pyrrolidone to acetylene under high pressure.14−16 Radical polymerization of NVP allows the synthesis of numerous functional polymers and copolymers,17,18 for example, Kollidon, Luviskol, Sokalan, and Luvitec.19 In 2006, the world market for polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) had a capacity of approximately 31 000 tons.20 Some of these polymers/copolymers show remarkable physical properties. For example, they can be tuned to be highly hygroscopic, dispersing, or adhesive with a strong tendency toward film and complex formation. They are also compatible with biological systems, nontoxic, stable within a wide pH range, and soluble in hydrophilic as well as lipophilic systems. Recently, published methods also allow transforming enamides into various cyclic and linear products via lightinitiated radical processes.21−24 Enamines/imines and enamides are also used as starting materials for asymmetric hydrogenations (2).

membered rings via light-initiated [2+2]-(hetero)cycloadditions (4).38−40 A further reaction mode of enamines and enamides is their addition to electrophiles (5). The chemical bond is usually formed at the vinylogous carbon rather than at the nitrogen atom of the enamine. Enamines are strong nucleophiles due to the electron-donating ability of the nitrogen, which increases the electron density at the C−C double bond. The nucleophilicity of enamides is lower because of the electronwithdrawing effect of the carbonyl group. Imines, in contrast, exhibit electrophilic properties, and nucleophilic attack occurs at the α-carbon. This process is usually catalyzed by acids or Lewis-acidic metals.41,42 Thus, Matsubara et al. described an aza-ene-type copper-catalyzed asymmetric addition of enamides to electrophiles.43−46 The resulting β-amino imines can be hydrolyzed to β-amino ketones or reduced to diamines.44,45 This method can also be applied to the addition of enamides and enecarbamates.43,46 The enantioselective aza-Henry or Mannich-type reaction of imines with silyl nitronates or silyl ethers leads to the formation of N-protected α-amino esters (6).47−49 Imines can also be diversely functionalized via nucleophilic addition reactions, which are promoted by copper, silver, and gold catalysts (see section 6.1). NHC-catalyzed annulations of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes with imines have been used to construct various N-heterocycles with exceptional enantioselectivity.50−54 Enamines have been employed in a related cyclization involving an NHC-catalyzed aza-Claisen step to give dihydropyridinones (7).55 Other reaction modes of enamides are metal-catalyzed crosscouplings (8),56−58 C−H functionalizations (9),59−63 and codimerizations (10),64 as well as Heck reactions with aryl bromides. 65 The cross-coupling of vinyl iodides with arylboronic acids leads to the same products and allows for further substitution at the enamide double bond. The ruthenium-catalyzed codimerization of N-vinyl amides and acrylates or alkynes is a mild method to derivatize non-
1.2. Traditional Syntheses of Enamines/Imines and Enamides
The versatile applications of enamines/imines and enamides described above explain the quantity of effort made toward finding general, stereoselective, and environmentally benign access to these substance classes. An overview on traditional approaches, ranging from condensations (1)66−73 with organocatalyst,74 alkyl- or phenylaluminum dichloride as mediators,75 trimethylsilyl triflate as the catalyst,76 to cross-coupling techniques (2,3),77−88 is given in Scheme 2. The disadvantages of condensations are that usually the thermodynamically favored E-products are formed, whereas the Z-isomers are inaccessible.89−91 In cross-couplings, the stereoselectivity issue is only transferred from the enamide formation to the synthesis of the vinyl halide starting materials. The oxidative amidations of olefins also yield E-configured enamides.92−109 However, in some cases, this stereoselectivity can be reverted in favor of the Z-products.110,111 Wittig reactions of amides or imides and phosphoranes or phosphonates result in the formation of enamines and enamides in good to excellent yields (4).112,113 However, the stereochemical outcome of the reaction is driven by the residues in the starting materials. Z-Enamides can also be synthesized in moderate to good yields from isocyanates or N,N-dialkyl formamides and Grignard reagents (5,6).114−116 Contemporary synthetic entries to enamides also include the Rh-catalyzed arylation of azavinyl carbenes (8),117−121 the hydrogenation of ynamides and allenamides (9),122−124 multicomponent reaction between allenes, nitriles, and carboxylic acids (10),125−127 and the isomerization of N-allylamides (11).128 A limited range of E-enamines can be obtained by E

the addition of N-alkyl-substituted lithium amides to terminal epoxides (7).129−131 Overall, a wealth of methods is known for the synthesis of enamines/imines and enamides, but still none of them satisfies all requirements of starting material availability, operational simplicity, atom economy, and selectivity.

1.3. Hydroamination and Hydroamidations: A Historical Overview
The first experimental evidence for a homogeneously catalyzed hydroamination of alkynes was provided by Kozlov in 1936.132 He reported that the addition of aniline to acetylene in the presence of mercury(II) chloride leads to N-[(1E)-ethylidene]aniline (Scheme 3, top). On this basis, Loritsch et al. developed
pressures of up to 1000 bar, a mixture of ethyl, diethyl, and triethyl amines was isolated in up to 66% yield (Scheme 6).
Scheme 3. Mercury-Catalyzed Hydroaminations of Terminal and Internal Alkynes
Scheme 6. Addition of Ammonia to Ethylene
A broad range of useful product classes are accessible by catalytic hydroaminations and hydroamidations (Scheme 7). Imines are obtained when adding primary amines to alkynes, whereas the addition of secondary amines results in the formation of enamines, which may be E- or Z-configured. In the presence of water, these products hydrolyze to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones, respectively (a, b). In contrast, enamides, as obtained when adding amides to alkynes, are hydrolytically stable and widely encountered in the scaffolds of natural products and functional materials,145 and protocols exist for the selective formation of both E- and Z-configured enamides from alkynes (a, b). Especially for the case of terminal alkynes, the regioselectivity for the formation of Markovnikov or anti-Markovnikov products can efficiently be controlled by the catalyst system. The hydroamination of alkenes leads to alkylamines, and alkylamides are formed by hydroamidation (c). The regioselectivities of intermolecular reactions are clearly much harder to control than those of their intramolecular variants (d). Intramolecular hydroaminations and hydroamidations with formation of five- or six-membered rings are catalyzed by numerous metals, and are widely used in the synthesis of N-heterocycles, for example, of indoles (e). The synthetic versatility of this reaction type is further potentiated by the ease of incorporating N−H addition steps into reaction cascades, and a wealth of such tandem or cascade reactions has been reported (see section 6).
a mercury-oxide-catalyzed hydroamination of terminal and internal alkynes with aniline (Scheme 3, bottom).133 The toxicity of mercury was not considered a stumbling block before the 1990s, and a lot of fascinating Hg chemistry was developed in the time frame of 1940−1990.134 However, the use of this toxic metal has become obsolete with the advent of modern transition metal-based catalysts and is therefore not covered in this Review. In 1992, Bergman and Livinghouse reported hydroaminations of alkynes with zirconocene and titanocene catalysts, and Marks with lanthanide catalysts.135−138 This set the stage for the development of various hydroamidation protocols using early transition metal or lanthanide catalysts (Scheme 4).139−142 Already in 1939, Reppe et al. showed that various N-vinyl compounds are accessible by adding amides and related N−H nucleophiles to acetylene in the presence of strong bases.15 This initially noncatalytic hydroamidation was later found to be enhanced by the presence of copper acetylides.16 In 1969, Möhrle et al. discovered that the sodium salts of cyclic lactams, methylacetamide, and acetanilide can also be added to phenylacetylene to give Z-configured enamides (Scheme 5).143 The first addition of amines to alkenes was reported in 1954.144 Howk and co-workers found that ammonia adds to ethylene in the presence of metallic sodium or lithium, or of the corresponding alkali metal hydrides.

those across C−C double bonds. This can be explained by the formation of substantially weaker π-bonds between most catalysts and alkynes as compared to alkenes. The intermediate strength of the interaction between the alkyne and the catalyst allows activating the C−C triple bond toward nucleophilic attack without inhibiting the reaction by a strong πcoordination to the metal center. Furthermore, alkynes are sterically less hindered toward attack of the nucleophile. The efficient and selective addition of amines and amides to alkenes remains a major challenge, but substantial advances have been made in recent years. 1.4.2. Selectivity. Besides achieving high catalytic activity, it is also necessary to control the chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity of this transformation to make it preparatively useful (Figure 2).
synthesizing enamines, imines, and enamides. In comparison to the traditional methods discussed in the last section, hydroamination and -amidation reactions have the inherent benefit of optimal atom economy, are based on readily available and inexpensive starting materials, and do not require stoichiometric amounts of coupling or dehydrating reagents. However, control of their chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity is essential to establish them as “green” alternatives to the known methodologies.146 As detailed below, the development of catalyst systems for achieving highly selective, efficient, and environmentally benign addition processes encounters many challenges. 1.4.1. Thermodynamic and Kinetic Issues. The addition of a nucleophile such as an amine across a C−C multiple bond is slightly exothermic or approximately thermoneutral.147,148 However, it is kinetically difficult, because the high electron density of the nucleophile and the π-electrons of the multiple bond repel each other. Therefore, a high activation barrier needs to be overcome to ensure that conversion will occur. Moreover, the high temperatures required to cross this barrier induce a shift of the equilibrium toward the starting materials because of the negative entropy associated with this reaction type.148−150 Noncatalytic hydroaminations and -amidations involve either strong acids that protonate the C−C multiple bond, thus facilitating attack by the N-nucleophile,151−153 or strong bases to deprotonate the N-nucleophile to generate strongly nucleophilic metal amides, which can add to the C−C multiple bond more easily.154−158 Metal catalysts can mimic the action of the proton in coordinating to the C−C multiple bond, thereby reducing its electron density and, thus, enabling C−N bond formation. Alternatively, they can replace the nitrogenbound proton and thus allow insertion of C−C multiple bonds. Despite the fact that alkynes have more π-electrons than alkenes, which could be expected to increase the electrostatic repulsion of the nucleophile, metal-catalyzed addition reactions across C−C triple bonds are much easier to accomplish than
Figure 2. Chemo-, regio-, and stereocontrol in addition reactions.
For a start, the chemoselectivity is not easy to control. Good functional group tolerance is the key to the broad applicability of a new method, and the presence of functional groups opens opportunities for further derivatization. Without a catalyst, N− H nucleophiles have a more profound tendency to react with electrophilic centers, for example, carbonyl groups, than with C−C multiple bonds. To ensure that hydroamination will occur, a selective hydroamination catalyst needs to preferentially coordinate to N−H nucleophiles and/or C−C multiple bonds and must not react with other functionalities. Late transition metals such as ruthenium and palladium tend to score better in terms of functional group tolerance than most G

Scheme 8. M-Catalyzed Hydroamination and Hydroamidation of Alkene, Allene, and Alkyne
initiating steps: (a) activation of the C−C multiple bond by πcoordination of a Lewis-acidic metal complex, followed by nucleophilic addition of the N-nucleophile; (b) initial formation of a metal−nitrogen bond, followed by insertion of the alkene/ alkyne into the M−N bond; (c) initial formation of a metal− hydride, and migratory insertion of the alkene/alkyne into the M−H bond; and (d) rearrangement of initially formed η2alkyne−metal species into vinylidene complexes, which are then attacked by the N-nucleophile. Pathway (a) is the most common. A Lewis-acidic catalyst metal activates the C−C multiple bond by withdrawing electron density, via η2-coordination of C−C multiple bonds to form the intermediate A1 or A1′. Cationic metal complexes bearing electron-poor ligands show particularly high activity. Usually, the attack of the nucleophile occurs from outside the coordination sphere of the metal, so that the metal and amine/ amide are in anti-configuration (Scheme 8, eq a). Theoretical studies revealed that the slippage from η2- to η1-coordination is crucial for nucleophilic addition, as it lowers the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) in energy and localizes it on the β-carbon of the η1-coordinated alkene.161,162 The hydroamination or -amidation product is liberated from intermediate A2 or A2′ by direct protonolysis or protonation at the central metal followed by reductive elimination. Both of these terminating steps usually occur with retention of the configuration, so that, overall, the addition of the N−H group proceeds with anti-selectivity. The substrates most likely to enter this pathway are electron-deficient alkenes/alkynes (i.e., terminal alkenes/alkynes, diynes, or propiolic acid derivatives) in combination with electron-rich N-nucleophiles, such as amines and N−H heterocycles. This pathway may also come to play with electron-poor N-nucleophiles including amides, sulfonamides, carbamates, lactams, or ureas in combination with various classes of alkenes including ethylene, aliphatic alkenes, styrenes, and internal alkenes, as well as allenes. Another commonly encountered mechanism is pathway (b), in which the metal catalyst first activates the N-nucleophile either by ligand exchange (typically basic amine substrates) or by oxidative addition of a low-valent transition metal to the N− H bond (usually less basic amine or amide substrates) (Scheme 8, eq b). The C−N bond is then formed by migratory insertion of the alkene/alkyne or allene into the M−N bond.163 Although alkenes are intuitively proposed by most authors to insert into M−C or M−H rather than M−N bonds, there is a growing body of evidence that especially Rh, Ir, Pt, Pd complexes can also insert coordinated alkenes into M−N bonds.164 A free
early transition metals, and the conditions employed are usually milder. However, even if the catalyst is able to selectively activate C−C multiple bonds, these transformations are often associated with several competing reactions. For example, most hydroamination catalysts also promote oligomerizations of olefins and alkynes.159 State-of-the-art catalysts favor hydroaminations over alkene/alkyne oligomerization reactions, but the related oligomerization products are often detected. Thus, hydroamination yields are mostly calculated on the basis of the N−H nucleophile, because the alkene/alkyne is added in excess. The second issue to be addressed is regioselectivity. This is particularly challenging for internal olefins or alkynes with similar substituents on both sides. For terminal alkynes, efficient strategies have been developed, particularly for terminal C−C multiple bonds, to selectively produce either Markovnikov or anti-Markovnikov addition products. For internal C−C multiple bonds, the regioselectivity can be influenced by introducing strongly electron-withdrawing or extremely bulky substituents on one side of the multiple bond.160 In intramolecular hydroaminations, the regioselectivity is mostly controlled by the preferential formation of five- or sixmembered rings. In catalytic reaction, the preferred regioselectivity strongly depends on the catalytic pathway. The third challenge in addition reactions is the control of their stereochemical outcome. Depending on whether the attack of the nucleophile occurs from the top or bottom of the C−C double or triple bond, different enantiomers/diastereomers are formed (see Figure 2). The stereochemical outcome of the reaction is influenced by factors related both to the substrate (acidity of the N−H bond, electronic properties of the C−C multiple bond, and steric bulk of the reaction partners) and to the catalyst (electronic and steric properties of the transition metal complex). One strategy to develop stereoselective hydroaminations is to design the ligand environment to efficiently block an attack to the C−C multiple bond from one side, so that the N−H addition can only occur from another. 1.4.3. Strategies To Control Reactivity and Selectivity. The addition of amines, amides, or other N−H nucleophiles across C−C multiple bonds can follow various mechanisms, and the efficiency and selectivity depend on the catalytic pathway at play (Scheme 8). The substrate combination, the catalyst system, and the conditions together determine which mechanism is most favorable. Catalytic N−H pathways can roughly be divided into four categories depending on their H

Scheme 9. Oxidative Amination and Amidation versus Hydroamination of Alkenes
from a hydroamination or -amidation of alkenes (Scheme 9). This pathway is favored for metal catalysts with a preference for β-hydride elimination, such as palladium. With this metal, a wealth of oxidative aminations and amidations have been described,94−100 but only few redox-neutral additions of N−H nucleophiles. Another side reaction that results from the competition between β-hydride elimination and protonolysis/ reductive elimination is the conversion of alkynes to allenes. If an alkyne is converted first into the corresponding allene, the following hydroamination step will lead to the formation of allylic amines in place of the expected enamines/imines or enamides.167−171 Four strategies have been employed to suppress competing β-hydride elimination in hydroamination/-amidation processes. The first consists of using a metal with a lower tendency for βhydride elimination. Thus, platinum often effectively promotes the intermolecular hydroamidation of alkenes, when palladium catalysts exclusively give oxidative amination products.172,173 The second involves adding an excess of coordinating anions or bi- or tridentate ligands to block all coordination sites of the transition metal center and, thus, preclude metal−β-hydride interactions.174−176 Excess bulky ligands also accelerate the reductive elimination of the hydroamidation product from intermediate E before β-hydride elimination with formation of the oxidative amination products can occur. Alternatively, an acidic cocatalyst or additive can be added to facilitate the liberation of the hydroamination products via a protonolysis of intermediates E.
coordination site is necessary for C−C multiple bond coordination to metal−amido complexes. In contrast to pathway (a), this reaction type demands at least two coordination sites on the metal center, one for nitrogen nucleophile and one for C−C multiple bond. In the resulting intermediate B2 or B2′, the metal and amine/amide are in synconfiguration. Liberation of the product via protolysis again occurs with retention, so that, overall, the syn-addition products are obtained. Migratory insertions are often sensitive to steric hindrance, so that the metal is inclined to go to the less sterically hindered position. Thus, this pathway, which has been described mostly for the reaction of anilines and amides with alkenes, allenes, and alkynes, will also preferentially lead to the formation of Markovnikov products. Only with one Rh-catalyst has it been reported to give anti-Markovnikov products (see Scheme 33).165 Pathway (c) is complementary to (b) in that it involves a migratory insertion of the alkene/alkyne into an M−H rather than an M−N bond. The M−H bond is formed by oxidative addition either of a carboxylic acid additive or of an acidic N−H nucleophile, such as an amide or aromatic amine, to the metal center. This reaction mode has been described, for example, for low-valent Rh, Ir, Ru, or Pd complexes. Other methods for the generation of M−H species include the dehydrogenation of alcohols, and hydride transfer from silanes, for example, to Cu, Fe, or Co catalysts. Migratory insertion of the alkene, alkyne, or allene into the M−H bond to give intermediates C2 or C2′ is again influenced by steric factors that will usually direct the metal to the less hindered carbon atom. The subsequent reductive elimination process, in which the C−N bond forms, will thus give rise to the anti-Markovnikov product (Scheme 8, eq c). Pathway (d) has been described for ruthenium-catalyzed hydroamidations of alkynes. It also starts with the formation of an M−H species D1 followed by insertion of the alkyne, which leads to a vinyl−metal species D2. Such intermediates rearrange to the corresponding vinylidene complexes, which are susceptible to attack by the N-nucleophile in the α-C position (Scheme 8, eq d).166 This pathway usually leads to the exclusive formation of Markovnikov products with high selectivity for the syn-enamides. However, the right choice of ligands allows inverting the stereoselectivity of the process in favor of the antiMarkovnikov products. The addition of N-nucleophiles to alkenes affords alkyl− metal species, which are prone to β-hydride elimination. Such oxidative processes lead to enamine/imine or enamide products rather than the saturated amines and amides that would result
1.5. Catalyst Metals Used in Hydroaminations and Hydroamidations
Over the years, numerous metals have been found to promote the addition of N−H nucleophiles across C−C multiple bonds. Because of their inherent set of properties, the application range of the various metals is diverse and often complementary. The appeal of a catalyst system is not only determined by its performance, but also by its availability and cost, its functional group tolerance, and, last but not least, its toxicity. Thus, despite their excellent stability, activity, and carbophilicity, research on Hg and Tl-based systems has almost been abandoned because of their toxicity. Catalysts based on early transition metals, for example, Ti or Zr, or on lanthanides/ actinides display high activity in various additions of amines across C−C multiple bonds.177−180 They have widely been employed as catalysts for the hydroamination of symmetrically and unsymmetrically substituted internal and terminal alkynes/ alkenes with alkyl or aryl amines. However, their high oxophilicity renders such catalyst systems susceptible to air I

Scheme 10. Reaction Pathways and Product Classes Covered in This Review
promote the asymmetric intermolecular hydroamination of alkenes with heteroaromatic amines.223 Pd complexes are widely used to catalyze intramolecular hydroaminations and -amidations of alkynes. As an example, intramolecular hydroaminations of aminoalkynes represent an advantageous strategy to obtain indoles.224 In combination with chiral phosphine ligands, high enantioselectivities were reached in intermolecular hydroaminations of alkenes, 1,3-dienes, and allenes.225 Palladium is the catalyst metal of choice for C−Ccoupling/intramolecular hydroamination cascades. The strong tendency of alkyl−palladium intermediates to undergo βhydride eliminations hampers its use in intermolecular hydroaminations of alkenes, but opens a wealth of opportunities for oxidative amination processes. Pt complexes have a low tendency toward β-hydride eliminations. As a consequence, they efficiently promote intra- and intermolecular hydroaminations and -amidations not only of alkynes and allenes, but also of alkenes (see sections 4.4.2 and 4.4.5).172,173,226,227 Ru catalysts promote the addition of various nucleophiles such as water, carboxylic acids, and thiols across C−C double and triple bonds.228−236 They are particularly active catalysts for the addition of N−H nucleophiles specifically to terminal alkynes via highly regio- and stereoselective pathways involving vinylidene intermediates (see section 2.4.1). Ru catalysts also show high activity in asymmetric intermolecular hydroaminations of alkenes (Scheme 181).237 Re catalysts have recently been reported to promote some hydroamidations of terminal alkynes that are usually catalyzed by Ru systems.238,239 The use of inexpensive transition metals such as Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu in hydroamination and amidation reactions is still in its infancy. Iron has been employed to catalyze intramolecular hydroamidations of allenes and alkynes, and intermolecular hydroamidations of activated alkenes. Cobalt exhibits excellent activity in C−N bond-forming reactions of hydrazines and azides (see section 4.5). Nickel complexes have been shown to promote intermolecular hydroaminations of alkynes, 1,3-dienes, and some activated alkenes with aliphatic amines, albeit at high catalyst loadings and elevated temperatures.240−242 Copper catalysts have been used for intramolecular hydroaminations and -amidations of C−C multiple bonds. In addition, CuI shows excellent activity in the anti-Markovnikov hydro-
and moisture, and raises challenges related to functional group tolerance. Moreover, early transition metals usually do not promote the addition of amides to any type of C−C multiple bond. Because of their lower reactivity toward oxygen-containing functional groups, the use of late transition metal catalysts is desirable in particular for the late-stage functionalization of complex molecules, and many new systems have been disclosed within the past decade. Many different catalysts were developed for specific applications, so that it is not easy to predict which of them will be ideal for a given substrate combination. Table 1 can thus only serve as a rough guideline for catalyst selection. For an in-depth discussion of each catalyst system, see the corresponding section of this Review as well as the primary literature. Au213,214 and Ag complexes215,216 have intensely been studied for the hydroamidation of alkenes, allenes, and alkynes, and have been found also to promote inter- and intramolecular hydroaminations of alkynes and allenes. Gold catalysts have been reported to give extremely high turnover numbers (TON) of up to 95 000.217 Gold is a particularly efficient catalyst metal also for asymmetric addition reactions, for example, intermolecular hydroaminations and -amidations of alkenes, and hydroamidations of 1,3-dienes and allenes. Silver salts with noncoordinating anions are used to abstract halide ions from the gold catalyst and thereby to enhance its Lewis acidity. As a consequence, gold and silver catalysts are often used in combination with each other. Rh complexes show excellent activity in intermolecular hydroaminations of alkynes and alkenes, and their selectivity is high for the anti-Markovnikov addition products (see Table 2).165,205,218−220 Rhodium tolerates a particularly wide range of functional groups. In combination with chiral 2-dialkylphosphino-2′-alkoxy-1,1′-binaphthyl ligands, this metal allows efficiently synthesizing various chiral amines via asymmetric cyclizations of N−H functionalized alkenes.202 Ir complexes are similarly active in intra- and intermolecular hydroaminations of terminal alkynes and alkenes with anilines and heteroaromatic amines, and generally lead to Markovnikov products.221 Iridium complexes also catalyze intermolecular Markovnikov hydroamidations of nonactivated alkenes.207,222 Moreover, chiral Ir complexes have been found to efficiently K

1.6. Scope and Structure of This Review
This Review examines recent developments in the field of hydroamination and -amidation reactions, that is, the addition of amines, amides, and related N-nucleophiles across C−C double or triple bonds. Müller et al. have previously reviewed homogeneously and heterogeneously catalyzed hydroaminations of alkenes and alkynes in 1998 and 2008 in this journal.147,246 Their focus was set on hydroamination protocols involving rare earths, early transition metals, and palladium catalysts along with Brønsted acid and base catalysts. Since then, the field of addition reactions of N-nucleophiles has become so vast that it is no longer possible to cover it comprehensively within a single review. This Review therefore exclusively studies late transition metal-catalyzed hydroaminations and hydroamidations, which are only briefly mentioned in the preceding Chemical Reviews articles, but have undergone a tremendous development within the past decade. Scheme 10 provides a structured overview of the scope of this Review. More than 400 publications on late transition metal-catalyzed addition reactions of N-nucleophiles have appeared since the 2008 review, which underlines the topicality of this field. This Review aims at comprehensively covering late transition metal-catalyzed addition reactions of N-nucleophiles to C−C multiple bonds that were disclosed after the 2008 review. Older literature is included only if it still represents the state-of-the-art in a given field. The material is structured according to the combination of N-nucleophile and C−C multiple bond classes, so that synthetic organic chemists in particular may easily navigate this Review. One substrate combination was omitted, the addition of N−H nucleophiles to Michael acceptors (Scheme 11). Formally, such reactions, which are catalyzed
respective section, and reference is given to complementary or preceding review articles, including those presented below. Doye et al. have reviewed the transition metal-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination chemistry of alkynes, with a particular focus on titanium, up to the end of 2006.148,149 In 2013, hydroamidations catalyzed by group III−V metals, lanthanides and actinides, as well as main group metals were reviewed by Reznichenko and Hultzsch.275 These authors also briefly discuss some progress made in late transition metalcatalyzed hydroamination reactions. Alonso et al. have reviewed early and late transition metal-catalyzed hydroamination reactions of alkynes until 2004, with a focus on palladiumbased methods.276 A short review by Yamamoto covers late transition metal-catalyzed hydroaminations (but not hydroamidations) up to 2010, and is structured according to the reaction modes involved.277 Moreover, some more general reviews exist on hydrofunctionalizations of C−C multiple bonds, including the addition of N−H, O−H, S−H, P−H, and C−H nucleophiles.213,278,279
2. CATALYTIC ADDITION OF NITROGEN NUCLEOPHILES TO UNCONJUGATED ALKYNES 2.1. Ammonia
Ammonia is a particularly cheap and abundant nitrogen source, and its use in atom-economic processes for C−N bond formation is of considerable importance.280,281 It is a challenging substrate in hydroamination reactions because of its moderate nucleophilicity and strongly coordinating properties. Bond dissociation energy (BDE) calculations by Lledós and Ujaque confirmed that ammonia forms unusually strong complexes with the metal center.282 The noncatalyzed addition of ammonia to short-chain alkynes and olefins is known to proceed only under very basic, rather forcing conditions,144,283−285 that is, stoichiometric amounts of alkali metals and up to 100 bar NH3.154 2.1.1. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkynes. The only example of a late transition metal-catalyzed hydroamination was reported by Bertrand et al., who found that cationic AuI complexes with cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene ligands promote the addition of ammonia to alkynes to give the Markovnikov products. Starting from diynes, double hydroamination with ammonia using the same catalyst provides access to pyrroles (Scheme 13).286 This cationic gold complex can also fulfill the addition of ammonia to both terminal and internal allenes. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the reaction proceeds via an intermediate in which both the NH3 and the alkyne are bound to the Lewis-acidic gold complex, rather than via coordination of the alkyne and intermolecular attack of NH3 to the C−C triple bond. In view of the importance of ammonia as a feedstock for the production of nitrogen-containing molecules, continuation of this pioneering work would be of substantial interest.

by various transition metals such as Pd,247−254 Cu,255−258 Ni,259−265 and Pt complexes,266 as well as heterobimetallic systems, 267 could be classified as hydroaminations or -amidations. However, we believe that they are more similar in essence to classical Michael reactions than to the additions of N-nucleophiles to nonactivated alkynes, allenes, and alkenes covered in this Review.268−272 C−N bond-forming reactions via Cope cycloadditionscycloreversions are versatile tools for constructing C−N and C−H bonds starting from alkynes, alkenes, or allenes and hydroxylamine or hydrazine derivatives. They proceed via a five-membered cyclic transition state (Scheme 12).273 The Cope-type hydroamination, a metal-free process, has been discussed in recent reviews.274 Neither reaction type is covered within this Review. At the beginning of each section, the state-of-the-art is briefly summarized for the specific C−N bond-forming reaction using catalysts other than those comprehensively discussed in the L

2.2.1. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkynes. Aliphatic amines are more nucleophilic than ammonia, and their catalytic addition to multiple bonds is more easily accomplished. However, in late transition metalcatalyzed hydroaminations of alkynes, they are less reactive than aromatic amines. This can be explained by their stronger coordination to the catalyst, which slows the catalytic turnover. Thus, many catalysts that are highly efficient for the intermolecular Markovnikov hydroamination of alkynes with anilines (section 2.3) are unable to promote the transformation of aliphatic amines. A uranium complex was the first metal catalyst reported to promote the anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of terminal alkynes with primary amines.287,288 After that, the intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes was dominated by early transition metal catalysts for a long time.289−293 As documented in preceding review articles, various complexes of Ti and Zr294−298 as well as of lanthanides and actinides299 efficiently promote the intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes with aliphatic amines at temperature between 60 and 100 °C. For example, bis(amidate)bis(amido)titanium complexes catalyze various intermolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroaminations of alkynes with aliphatic amines at 65 °C with up to 98% yield and >49:1 regioselectivity even on multigram scales.300,301 However, early transition metal catalysts are inactive in hydroaminations with secondary amines, because the intermediate formation of imido-metal species is crucial for catalytic turnover. In 2007, Fukumoto et al. reported a RhI-catalyzed antiMarkovnikov addition of both primary and secondary amines to terminal aliphatic alkynes as the first late transition metalcatalyzed hydroamination of aliphatic amines. The use of both trispyrazolylborate and phosphine ligands is essential to suppress undesired alkyne dimerization and to promote the formation of E-enamines (Scheme 14).302 By using a catalyst
analogy to Fukumoto’s rhodium-catalyzed hydroamination of terminal alkynes (see Scheme 14), the reaction was proposed to proceed via nucleophilic addition of the N−H nucleophile to a Ru-vinylidene intermediate. It is interesting that with the same catalyst, the analogous addition of β-diketones to 1-alkynes proceeds with Markovnikov selectivity. In 2013, Astruc et al. reported that both primary and secondary amines react with ethynylcobalticinium to give the corresponding cobalticinium trans-enamines in quantitative yields (Scheme 16).306 It is not entirely clear if the cobalt complex acts only as a substrate or also as a catalyst in this antiMarkovnikov hydroamination. Scheme 16. anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Ethynylcobalticinium
2.2.2. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Internal Alkynes. One of the obvious challenges of the intermolecular hydroamination of internal alkynes is achieving satisfactory regioselectivity. One way to address this is to employ alkynes containing an electron-withdrawing group, which will force the amine to attack the less electron-rich side of the π-system. However, it is difficult to differentiate such processes from traditional Michael additions, which are not covered in this Review. For example, 5 mol % of CuCl effectively promotes the addition of amines to alkynylphosphonates (Scheme 17),307 whereas the base-mediated addition of amines to alkynylphosphonates usually gives a mixture of Z- and Eisomers.308−310 E-2-(Dialkylamino)alkenyl phosphonates are formed in high selectivities in the presence of this Cu-catalyst.

Scheme 18. AuI-Catalyzed Regioselective Intermolecular Hydroamination of Internal Alkynes
TONs of up to 9.6 × 104.181 A drawback common to these systems is that they are generally suitable only to make five- or six-membered N-heterocycles. The construction of sevenmembered rings remains challenging; that of four- and eightmembered rings has yet to be accomplished.312 The late transition metal-catalyzed cyclization of 6-aminohex1-yne to 6-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine was systematically investigated by Müller et al. (Scheme 20).313,314 [Cu-
The regioselective addition of amines to nonactivated internal alkynes is much harder to accomplish. In 2009, the Bertrand group utilized their cationic AuI complexes with cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene ligands to achieve the hydroamination of terminal/internal alkynes with secondary amines in good yield and moderate regioselectivity.311 Later, the addition of a narrow range of dialkylamines to unsymmetrical internal alkynes with reasonable yields and selectivities was developed by Stradiotto et al. using a cationic AuI complex with a bulky P,N-ligand (Scheme 18).186 The C−N bond is formed preferentially at the carbon bearing the aryl substituent, with the exception of 2-alkynylpyridines, which react as Michael-type substrates. The reaction is believed to proceed via the coordination of the alkyne to an Au-amine adduct, followed by the formation of a vinyl-Au intermediate via proton transfer and alkyne insertion. The E-configured enamine is liberated stereoselectively via protodeauration. Garciá et al. reported that 0.5 mol % of (dippe)Ni(μ-H) promotes the hydroamination of diphenylacetylene with pyrrolidine at 180 °C.240 The use of NiII complexes with triphenyl phosphite ligands allowed decreasing the reaction temperature to 140 °C and extending the scope to alkyl aryl alkynes (Scheme 19).241 The yields and regioselectivities

(CH3CN)4]PF6, as well as several group 12 metal salts, exhibited the highest catalytic activity. Yan et al. subsequently reported a Re(CO)5(H2O)BF4-catalyzed version of this cyclization.315 In this reaction type, a free coordination site on the transition metal center is crucial for success. One extensively used strategy to form the active catalysts in situ is to abstract an anionic ligand from neutral metal complexes using silver salts or NaBPh4. Catalyst activation is also possible by dissociation of a labile ligand from the transition metal. Messerle et al. reported a series of RhI- and IrI-catalyzed intramolecular hydroaminations of terminal alkynes (Scheme 21).316−324 Thus, cationic RhI and IrI complexes with bidentate N,P-, N,N-, or N-carbenes were shown to be efficient catalysts for the hydroamination of 4pentyn-1-amine. The same cyclization was also efficiently catalyzed with Ag complexes stabilized by bidentate ligands, such as 1-(2-(diphenylphosphino)ethyl)pyrazole.325 A bifunctional hydroxyl-aminoalkyne chemoselectively undergoes hydroamination in the presence of an NHC−CuI catalyst (Scheme 22).326 In contrast, the related hydroalkoxylation of the same substrates was promoted by a lanthanum complex.327 Silver catalyzes 5-endo-dig hydroaminations leading to 4,5dihydroisoxazoles,328 isoquinoline,329 and 1-pyrroline derivatives,330 whereas the formation of pyrroles was observed via a 5exo-dig cyclization.331 Thus, Helquist et al. reported an efficient silver-catalyzed desymmetrization of aminodiynes via hydroamination (Scheme 23).332 A variety of functionalized 1pyrroline derivatives were synthesized in 73−88% isolated yields under mild conditions. Ru-, Ir-, and Rh-complexes have also been used for 5-endo-dig hydroaminations of internal alkynes with primary amines to form 1-pyrroline derivatives.320,333,334

However, this reaction demonstrates that, in principle, inexpensive Ni can be used as the catalyst metal in such difficult hydroaminations. 2.2.3. Intramolecular Hydroamination of Alkynes. Intramolecular processes are easier to accomplish because of the close spatial proximity of the amine and C−C triple bond. Reviews on the hydroamination of alkynes provide good coverage of early work in this area.148,149 Various metals have been used to promote such reactions, including early and late transition metals and rare earths. State-of-the-art catalysts consist of RhI complexes bearing N,N- and N,P-ligands, which catalyze the intramolecular hydroamination of alkynes with N

Au-Catalyzed 6-exo-dig Hydroamination of Alkynes
Transition metals on solid supports have also been employed as hydroamination catalysts. For example, Alper et al. reported in 2001 that silica-supported cis-[PdMe(Cl)(PMe3)2] catalyzes the hydroamination of 5-hexyn-1-amine with 85% conversion at 1.2 mol % loading.341 Messerle’s group used RhI complexes with N,N- or N,P-ligands anchored to glassy carbon electrodes to heterogeneously catalyze the hydroamination of 4-pentyn-1amine with high TONs (up to 96 000), which are orders of magnitude greater than those of their homogeneous counterparts.342
A convenient route for the synthesis of various charged tetracyclic isoquinolizinium hexafluoroantimonates was developed using AgSbF6/AuCl(PPh3) for the intramolecular addition of amine to alkyne (Scheme 25).338 However, stoichiometric amounts of silver were needed for generating the oxidative cyclization product. Dinuclear transition metal complexes are also efficient catalysts for the intramolecular hydroamination of terminal alkynes.

The reactivity of aromatic amines in metal-catalyzed hydroaminations is higher as compared to aliphatic amines, because they coordinate less strongly to the metal catalysts, and are more easily transferred to the alkyne triple bond.

31 200 at only 50 °C was achieved for this transformation using a cationic gold complex stabilized by electron-rich, sterically demanding bis(ortho-biphenyl)cyclohexyl phosphine ligands.187 2.3.1. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkynes. 2.3.1.1. Primary Amines. Late transition metalcatalyzed hydroaminations of terminal alkynes with primary aromatic amines usually lead to Markovnikov products. The enamines intermediately formed rapidly tautomerize to the imines. As such, they do not usually react further to double hydroamination products. The reaction can be driven toward the dienamines by employing excess alkyne in the presence of gold complexes with electron-rich, sterically demanding ligands. Wakatsuki and co-workers introduced the first method for the addition of primary amines to terminal alkynes to give imines.343 Their decisive discovery was that the presence of amine adducts of acids with noncoordinating anions, such as NH4PF6, strongly enhances the activity of Ru3(CO)12 as a hydroamination catalyst (Scheme 27). Thus, the addition of
0.6 mol % of NH4PF6 were sufficient to obtain moderate to high yields of the desired ketimines. Related Ru-sources, such as Ru(CO)(PPh3)2(SP), Ru(CO)2(PPh3)3, Ru(CO)3(PPh3)2, and RuH2(CO)(PPh3)3, were less effective. Further improvements of the catalyst activity were achieved by using tungstophosphoric acid (H3PW12O40) as the additive instead of NH4PF6, so that only 0.1 mol % Ru(CO)(PPh3)2(SP) and 0.2 mol % H3PW12O40 were needed for the hydroamination of equimolar mixtures of phenylacetylene with various anilines in up to 99% yield. In comparison to the Wakatsuki system343 (see Scheme 27), the reaction times are rather long, but the reaction proceeds cleanly even when the alkyne is added in only stoichiometric quantities. Klein et al. found that a dinuclear ruthenium complex with a rigid double-bridged dicyclopentadienyl ligand also possesses catalytic activity for the Markovnikov-selective hydroamination of phenylacetylenes with anilines (Scheme 29).346 The reactions proceed without side product formation, albeit with only moderate catalyst turnover numbers (up to six). A detailed mechanistic study was performed to elucidate the mode of action of the dinuclear complex. The catalytically active species was characterized as {(η5-C5H3)2(SiMe2)2}Ru2(CO)3{NH2(4MeC6H4)}, which is formed from the precursor {(η5C5H3)2(SiMe2)2}Ru2(CO)3(C2H4)H+BF4− by exchange of the ethylene and the bridging hydride for 4-toluidine. Most of the transient reaction intermediates have unambiguously been characterized by crystal structure analysis or NMR. An otherwise analogous, nonbridged Ru-dimer exhibited no catalytic activity, which suggests that a bridge between the two cyclopentadienyl ligands is indispensable for the hydroamidation activity of such dimeric complexes. The first intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes catalyzed by rhodium was reported by Beller et al. (Scheme 30).347 Their

aniline to phenylacetylene in 50 g scale yields the Markovnikov product in 84% yield when performed in the presence of 0.1 mol % Ru3(CO)12 and 0.3 mol % NH4PF6 at 100 °C. In the absence of acid, the product was obtained in only 3% yield. The acid might have two possible effects on the hydroamination: (1) formation of the ammonium salt, which as a consequence will not coordinate to the catalyst and thus accelerate hydrogen transfer; and (2) formation of an H−M species via oxidative addition, thus leading to a change in mechanism (cf., Scheme 8, pathway c). The scope includes aliphatic and aromatic alkynes as well as methoxy-substituted alkynes. The authors propose that in analogy to studies by Lavigne et al.,344 the presence of such ammonium salts with noncoordinating anions facilitates the substitution of carbonyl ligands in Ru3(CO)12. This early system is still remarkably close to the state-of-the-art with regard to the catalyst activity. Mizushima et al. showed that ruthenium styrylphosphine (SP) complexes mediate the hydroamination of phenylacetylene with anilines to give the Markovnikov imine (Scheme 28).345 0.3 mol % of Ru(CO)2(PPh3)(SP) in combination with

The presence of acid proved to be beneficial also in Rh-catalyzed intermolecular hydroaminations of terminal alkynes. Thus, [Cp*RhCl2]2 (0.5 mol %)/NH4PF6 (1.5 mol %) provided the Markovnikov products in excellent yields.348 Cao et al. reported a NHC-Pd-catalyzed Markovnikov hydroamination of terminal alkynes with anilines that gave up to 99% yield within 2 h (Scheme 31).349 In diethyl ether, the poor solubility of the NHC−Pd complex allowed easy recovery

substrates in alkyne hydroaminations for three reasons. First, secondary arylamines are more nucleophilic than primary amines and coordinate more strongly to the metal, so that their transfer to the carbon center is more difficult. Second, the electrostatic repulsion between the more electron-rich secondary amines and the alkyne π-electrons is stronger. Finally, for mechanisms involving simultaneous coordination of the amine and alkyne to the metal, the greater steric bulk of the secondary amines is a disadvantage. There are, therefore, few examples of late transition metal-catalyzed hydroaminations of secondary amines. The addition of secondary amines or N-heterocycles to terminal alkynes is traditionally mediated by strong bases (KOH or CsOH). These protocols usually provide antiMarkovnikov enamines with low Z/E-selectivities.157,367,368 Early metal catalysts for this transformation involved toxic HgCl2, which led to Markovnikov products (Scheme 34).369

Tanaka et al. reported an efficient intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes with anilines promoted by (Ph3P)AuMe in conjunction with acidic promoters under solvent-free conditions at 70 °C (Scheme 32).350 The authors observed Scheme 32.

that electron-rich arylalkynes are more reactive than electronpoor derivatives. In 2009, Shi and co-workers published a more efficient system for this transformation, consisting of 0.1 mol % PPh3AuOTf/benzotriazole/H3PW12O40, which afforded the corresponding product in up to 98% yield.351 The highest turnover number of 95 000 for the intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes was achieved by Lavallo et al., who used a zwitterionic gold catalyst coordinated to a phosphine ligand bearing an noncoordinating carborane substituent.217 A cationic gold/cyclohexylbis(2′,6′-diisopropoxybiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine complex at 25 ppm loading allowed the reaction to proceed at 50 °C, with an impressive TON of 31 200.187 Other recent advances include the use of N-heterocyclic carbene-assisted AuI,352−354 AuIII porphyrins,355 and heterogeneous gold complexes356−360 for highly selective and efficient intermolecular Markovnikov hydroaminations of terminal alkynes with aryl amines. PtBr2,361 IrIII,362 heterogeneous copper,363,364 and Zn−Co complexes365 are also efficient catalysts for the intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes with anilines. The first example of an intermolecular anti-Markovnikov addition of primary anilines to terminal alkynes was achieved with a cationic RhI complex bearing iminopyridine-based bidentate nitrogen donor ligands (Scheme 33).165,366 The anti-Markovnikov E-imines were obtained with high regio- and stereoselectivity. The reaction proceeds via the vinylidene mechanism depicted in Scheme 8, pathway d. 2.3.1.2. Secondary Amines. In comparison to primary arylamines, secondary derivatives are more challenging
Scheme 34. HgCl2-Catalyzed Intermolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkynes
The first ruthenium-catalyzed addition of secondary amines to terminal alkynes was presented by Uchimaru et al. in 1999.370 They found that a triruthenium dodecacarbonyl catalyst promotes the addition of N-methyl aniline or Nmethyl toluidine to aryl and cycloalkenyl alkynes to selectively give the Markovnikov addition products (Scheme 35). Good Scheme 35. Ru3(CO)12-Catalyzed Hydroamination Protocol by Uchimaru
yields based on the alkyne were obtained when the reaction was performed in a 10-fold excess of the amine. The excess amine is required to reduce alkyne oligomerization and isomerization of the enamine product. The postulated reaction mechanism is displayed in Scheme 36. The catalytic cycle starts with an oxidative addition of the amine to a Ru0 center with formation of a ruthenium-amidohydride complex. Coordination of an alkyne, followed by its insertion into the Ru−N bond, gives rise to a rutheniumenamine intermediate, which releases the product via reductive elimination, regenerating the active Ru0 species. In 2012, Bhattacharjee et al. achieved a highly regio- and stereoselective anti-Markovnikov addition of azoles to terminal alkynes using a RuII-based cationic complex (Scheme 37).188

Ru-Catalyzed anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Alkynes with Azoles In 2013, Liu et al. reported an efficient Ag0/carbon nanotubes-catalyzed synthesis of enamines via the hydroamination of activated alkynes with aromatic amines (Scheme 40).377 The catalyst could be recycled and reused thrice without a decrease in the yield. Under the optimal conditions, benzotriazoles can also undergo anti-Markovnikov addition to phenylacetylene with complete N1-selectivity. The mechanism was proposed to proceed via a ruthenium vinylidene intermediate as depicted in Scheme 8, pathway d. The regiocontrol of the functionalization of benzotriazoles is a challenging field due to the equilibrium between N2 and N1(N3) tautomers. Because the N2 tautomer decreases the aromaticity of benzotriazole, the N1-substituted benzotriazole is usually the dominant product.371−373 In 2009, Shi et al. reported a highly efficient approach to synthesize vinylsubstituted triazoles via gold-catalyzed Markovnikov hydroamination of alkynes with triazoles (Scheme 38).374 The benzotriazoles selectively give the N1-addition product, while the carbonyl-substituted N−H triazoles lead to the N2-addition product.

and -donating groups were tolerated on the aniline ring. The authors propose that the oxidative addition of benzoic acid to the Pd0 catalyst generates HPdOBz, which catalyzes an isomerization of the alkynes to allenes via insertion and βhydride elimination. The resulting allene inserts into the H−Pd bond to afford a π-allylpalladium species, which allylates the aromatic amine. An intramolecular version of this transformation leads to 2-substituted tetrahydroquinolines. This transformation has also been performed enantioselectively with up to 76% ee when (R,R)-RenorPhos was used as the chiral ligand.382 Bhanage et al. recently found that polymer-supported triphenylphosphine/palladium is an active heterogeneous catalyst for the related allylation of 1-phenyl-1-propyne with O- and N-nucleophiles.383 2.3.3. Intramolecular Hydroamination of Alkynes. Intramolecular hydroaminations of alkynes are catalyzed by a wide array of metals. Particularly the formation of five- and sixmembered rings proceeds well, and is possible even with simple acid catalysts.147 This reaction mode is comprehensively covered up to 2011 in Hierso’s review,224 so that this section lists only the more recent examples and new developments in the field. Indole derivatives are widely found in natural products and pharmaceuticals.384 As a result, their synthesis has intensely been studied.385,386 Indole syntheses via intramolecular hydroaminations of ortho-alkynyl anilines have been the focus of reviews published in 2006 and 2011, to which we refer for further reading on this reaction mode (Scheme 44).387−389

2.4. Amides
2.4.1. Intermolecular Hydroamidation of Terminal Alkynes. The intermolecular addition of amides to alkynes usually requires strong bases (see Scheme 5) or Brønsted acids.403 Early transition metals do not seem to catalyze such hydroamidations, and the first example of a late transition metal-catalyzed reaction was reported as late as 1995. Watanabe et al. observed that Ru3(CO)12/tricyclohexylphosphine mediates the anti-Markovnikov additions of simple anilides to 1octyne. This catalyst was applicable only to a handful of rather special substrate combinations and called for rather extreme temperatures and the use of a pressure reactor (Scheme 54).404 In the same year, Heider et al. reported that RuCl3 mediates the addition of N-nucleophiles to acetylene even in the absence of a base (Scheme 55).405 In their process, cyclic Nnucleophiles (e.g., 2-pyrrolidone, imidazole, or succinimide) are treated with 20 bar of a 1:3 mixture of N2/acetylene at 150−160 °C to give the corresponding enamides, enimides, or enamines. Ten years later, Gooßen et al. developed catalyst systems based on bis(2-methallyl)(cycloocta-1,5-diene)ruthenium(II)
Van der Eycken et al. reported another intramolecular hydroamination with switchable regioselectivity (Scheme 51).396 In the presence of 5 mol % AuCl and 10 equiv of TFA, ortho-alkynyl anilines undergo 5-endo-dig cyclization, while the 6-exo-dig hydroamination products were produced exclusively with silver triflate as a catalyst. An intramolecular hydroamination was applied by Song et al. in 2012 to fluorescence imaging of gold ions in living cells. Their novel fluorescent probe works by photoinduced electron transfer, which is selectively blocked by gold ions (Au3+/Au+) that catalyze its 6-exo-dig cyclization to produce a strongly fluorescent product (Scheme 52).397 A recent, mechanistically interesting development in this field is the iridium-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of internal alkynes bearing a tethered hydroxyl group described T

[(cod)Ru(met)2], which resulted in dramatically improved efficiency and generality of ruthenium-catalyzed hydroamidation reactions.190 Thus, a system generated in situ from (cod)Ru(met)2, tri-n-butylphosphine, and 4-diaminopyridine (DMAP) promotes the anti-Markovnikov-selective addition of various secondary N−H nucleophiles, including amides, anilides, ureas, bislactams, and carbamates, across terminal C−C triple bonds. The substrate scope does not include primary amides. High yields and E/Z-selectivities of up to 30:1 are achieved, and various functional groups are tolerated, including alkoxycarbonyl, alkoxy, carbonyl, halo, or silane groups (Scheme 56). The mechanism of the hydroamidation was extensively studied by a combination of deuterium-labeling and control experiments, as well as kinetic and spectroscopic studies (Scheme 57).190 The catalytically active Ru0 complex is generated via reductive coupling of a phosphine and a methallyl ligand, and exchange of the 1,5-cyclooctadiene with phosphine and DMAP ligands. The catalytic cycle starts with an insertion of the Ru0 species into the amide N−H bond. An alkyne coordinates to the resulting RuII-hydride species and inserts into the Ru−H bond. The resulting RuII-vinyl complex
rearranges to a RuIV-hydride-vinylidene species via α-hydride transfer. The vinylidene group is susceptible to nucleophilic attack at the electropositive α-C-position, explaining the antiMarkovnikov selectivity of the reaction. Thus, attack of the amide at this position furnishes a RuII-enamide intermediate. Finally, reductive elimination releases the E-enamide and regenerates the original Ru0 species. On the basis of these mechanistic studies, a simplified protocol was developed, in which the same catalyst species is generated in situ from simple precursors, that is, ruthenium trichloride hydrate (RuCl3·3H2O), PnBu3, DMAP, K2CO3, and water (see Scheme 57).406 In the above protocols, the E-enamides are predominantly formed. However, upon replacing the PnBu3 and DMAP ligands with bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)methane (dcypm) and water, the stereoselectivity is inverted in favor of the Z-isomers.190 Even though performance and selectivity of this complementary protocol do not yet reach the same levels as the E-selective protocol (Z/E ratios of up to 8:1), it demonstrated for the first time that the stereochemistry of ruthenium-catalyzed hydroamidations can be efficiently controlled by the ligand

by employing Lewis acids rather than auxiliary bases to support the insertion of the Ru catalyst into the N−H bond. Thus, a catalyst formed in situ from (cod)Ru(met)2, dcypb, and ytterbium triflate in wet DMF effectively promoted the Zselective monovinylation of primary amides (Scheme 59). Yb(OTf)3 functions as a Lewis acid, facilitating the oxidative addition to the ruthenium center, and the electron-rich and sterically demanding bidentate ligand dcypb suppresses a second vinylation of the product and controls the reaction stereochemistry in favor of the thermodynamically disfavored Z-isomer. The Z-enamides were obtained in good yields and selectivities. The scope of this reaction includes many sensitive functionalities such as ester, ether, halide, nitrile, nitro, and alkene groups. Even fragile acrylic, oxalic, malonic, or αcyanoacetic amides were efficiently converted. The reaction was also employed to synthesize a key intermediate in Castedo’s total synthesis of aristolactam.409 Because of the higher stability of E- as compared to Zenamides, the Z-enamides obtained in the above protocol can be isomerized in situ in the presence of an amine base and by raising the temperature to 110 °C (Scheme 60). Competing
environment. On the basis of spectroscopic studies, the mechanism of the Z-selective protocols is proposed to be analogous to that of the E-selective reactions (see Scheme 57). In the Ru-vinylidene intermediate, the bulky chelating phosphines seem to force the R3-substituent onto the side of the coordinated amide, so that the vinylidene substituent is attacked by the coordinated N-nucleophile from the face that carries the R3-substituent resulting in the formation of a Zenamide. A broader scope and high Z-selectivities of greater than 20:1 were reported for a bimetallic catalyst system composed of (cod)Ru(met) 2 , 1,4-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)butane (dcypb), and ytterbium triflate (Scheme 58).191 Yb(OTf)3 Scheme 58.

was proposed to facilitate the oxidative addition of the N−H bond to ruthenium in the absence of an auxiliary base.191 Upon replacing the bulky bidentate phosphine ligand by P(nBu)3, the selectivity is inverted in favor of the E-configured products. Beyond amides, the substrate range includes ureas, carbamates, and even imides, in combination with numerous aliphatic and aromatic alkynes. These initial catalyst systems were unable to convert primary amides. In comparison to secondary amides, they have a lower nucleophilicity, so that more active catalysts are required. Moreover, the secondary enamide products formed in the hydroamidation should themselves be more reactive than the starting materials toward a second alkyne hydroamidation. Thus, double-vinylated products would be expected to predominate. The first catalyst system capable of overcoming these hurdles was reported in 2008.407,408 The strategy used to make the reaction selective for the monovinylated products consisted of making the acidity of the N−H bond, rather than the nucleophilicity of the amide, the selectivity-determining factor,
hydrolysis is effectively suppressed by adding 3 Å molecular sieves. The resulting hydroamidation/Z-to-E-isomerization sequence gives access to a wide range of E-configured enamides in high yields and Z/E-selectivities up to 1:20. The synthetic utility of both hydroamidation protocols was recently demonstrated by the synthesis of a family of bioactive natural products, the botryllamides C and E, alatamide, the lansiumamides A and B, and lansamide I.407,408,410 Starting

ligand, and the molecular sieves are replaced by the strong base potassium tert-butoxide. The substrate scope of the complementary protocols includes alkyl- and aryl-substituted alkynes, conjugated enynes, trimethylsilylacetylene, and a range of secondary thioamides bearing aromatic or aliphatic substituents. In 2007, Yudha et al. found that Re2(CO)10 is an effective catalyst for the hydroamidation of terminal alkynes with cyclic lactams (Scheme 66).238 The N−H nucleophiles add antiMarkovnikov selectively, with a moderate preference for Econfigured enamides. The products can be isomerized almost quantitatively to the thermodynamically favored E-isomer by prolonged heating. The mechanism is believed to be analogous to the Ru-based protocols with involvement of Re−vinylidene intermediates. Panda et al. reported a palladium-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of electron-deficient terminal alkynes (Scheme 67).415 The transformation is highly stereoselective: primary amides produce Z-enamides, whereas secondary amides afford the E-enamides only. An intramolecular hydrogen bond between the amido proton and the carbonyl oxygen of the alkynes is believed to cause this surprising selectivity. The mild base cesium carbonate in combination with the Lewis acid FeCl3 also effectively mediates the intermolecular hydroamidation of terminal alkynes. With this procedure, some amides and sulfonamides give the anti-Markovnikov products in good to excellent yields at 150 °C.156 However, only moderate Z/E-selectivities can be reached. 2.4.2. Intermolecular Hydroamidation of Internal Alkynes. There are no examples of intermolecular hydroamidations of dialkyl alkynes. However, Kozmin et al. found that silver bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (AgNTf2) mediates the addition of secondary amides and carbamates to the highly reactive siloxy alkynes within only 30 min at ambient temperature (Scheme 68).189 The addition exclusively gives the Markovnikov products with high selectivities for the Econfigured isomers.
Barker et al. employed the above-mentioned rutheniumcatalyzed hydroamidation of indolic alkynes in concise syntheses of igzamide and Z-coscinamide B (Scheme 63).411 Especially adapted protocols allowed extending the scope of Ru-catalyzed hydroamidations to N−H nucleophiles with substantially higher N−H acidity. This includes imides, which are more acidic (pKa(DMSO) of 2-pyrrolidone = 24.2 and of succinimide = 14.6) and less nucleophilic than amides because of the extended electron-pair delocalization over the two carbonyl groups adjacent to the nitrogen.412 The anti-Markovnikov addition of imides (pKa ≈ 15) to terminal alkynes was achieved with a catalyst system generated in situ from (cod)Ru(met)2, PnBu3, and scandium(III) triflate (Scheme 64).413 Under these conditions, the Markovnikov products are formed exclusively with a high preference for the Z-isomers. If tri(isopropyl)phosphine is used as the ligand in place of PnBu3, the stereoselectivity is inverted, and the Econfigured isomers become the major product. The scope of the two complementary reaction protocols extends to aryl- and alkyl-substituted alkynes in combination with various imines. Thioamides are ambident nucleophiles with rather acidic N− H groups [pKa(DMSO) of pyrrolidine-2-thione = 18.1]412 that can react at the nitrogen or sulfur terminus depending on whether hard or soft electrophiles are used. They are potential catalyst poisons because of their strong interaction with many late transition metals. A catalyst generated in situ from (cod)Ru(met)2, tri-n-octylphosphine (PnOc3), and molecular sieves (3 Å MS) mediates the anti-Markovnikov addition of secondary thioamides to terminal alkynes affording the Econfigured thioenamides in high yields and excellent selectivities (Scheme 65).414 The diastereoselectivity is reversed in favor of the corresponding Z-configured isomer when bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)methane (dcypm) is used as the Scheme 62.

protodemetalation of the alkenyl−silver compound gives the product and regenerates the silver catalyst. 2.4.3. Intramolecular Hydroamidation of Alkynes. Intramolecular hydroamidations of alkynes are more easily achieved than the intermolecular versions, and numerous metal complexes have been reported to promote such reactions. Simple acids and bases often suffice as the catalysts. For example, the cyclization of (2-alkynyl)anilines or (2alkynylphenyl)ureas proceeds smoothly in the presence of KOtBu155 or TfOH.403 However, the use of late transition metals offers great benefits. Several systems, for example, based on gold, silver, or palladium, allow accessing not only five- and six-, but also the entropically unfavorable four- and sevenmembered heterocycles.213,215,216 Most substrates appear to exhibit a preference for the formation of either exo- or endocyclization products. In several recent instances, however, the catalyst determines whether endo- or exo-cyclization occurs, and there are several pairs of complementary protocols that allow accessing either product. From the examples below, rhodium appears to have a preference for endo-cyclizations. It remains

unclear which factors determine whether gold-, silver-, or palladium-catalyzed intramolecular hydroaminations will proceed with exo- or endo-selectivity, and accurate predictions as to the reaction outcome are difficult to make because subtle differences in the substrate structure or counterion in the catalyst have profound effects. The choice of the metal catalyst also influences whether ring closure occurs via the amide nitrogen or oxygen. Late transition metals often activate the amides by intermediate formation of metal−amido complexes, thereby increasing the reactivity of the nitrogen nucleophile toward C−C multiple bonds. 2.4.3.1. Terminal Alkynes: 4-exo versus 5-endo Cyclization. The 4-exo cyclizations are rarely observed due to the considerable ring strain in the products. Au(PPh3)Cl/Ag2CO3 catalyzes the 5-endo cyclization of N′-substituted N-(2alkynylphenyl)ureas to indole-1-carboxamides (Scheme 70).416 The reaction proceeds in water under microwave irradiation within 10 min.
Scheme 73. Ru-Catalyzed Intramolecular endo-Selective Hydroamidation of Terminal Alkynes
As expected for a reaction that proceeds via Ru-vinylidene intermediates, it does not extend to internal alkynes. Interestingly, the scope of this cyclization includes not only sulfonamides and amides, but also unprotected anilines. 2.4.3.2. 5-endo versus 6-exo Cyclization. Ureas may undergo either 5-endo or 6-exo cyclization, depending on which nitrogen atom forms the new bond to the alkyne carbon. In the protocol reported by the Asensio group in 2010, the selectivity depends on the substrate electronics. Thus, the same NHC−gold complex catalyzes the selective 6-exo cyclization of substituted (2-ethynylphenyl)ureas, whereas it leads to 5-endo cyclization when the substrates contain a more electrondeficient pyridine in place of the benzene ring (Scheme 74).421 As an alternative to hydroamination, a possible mechanism involving hydration of the alkynes to form the corresponding ketones followed by condensation cannot be ruled out for the 6-exo cyclization pathway.422 2.4.3.3. 5-exo versus 6-endo Cyclization. In 1990, Tamaru and co-workers reported that 5-exo cyclization of O-propargyl carbamates to the corresponding oxazolidinones is not only mediated by base, but also by CuI (R3 = p-toluenesulfonyl) and AgI catalysts (R3 = acyl) (Scheme 75).423 The carbamates may also be formed in situ from propargylic alcohols and ptoluenesulfonyl isocyanate, then cyclized to the oxazolidinones using 1 mol % copper iodide and 5 mol % Et3N as the catalyst.424 Amidines obtained by reaction of imidoyl chlorides with prop-2-yn-1-amines undergo gold-catalyzed 5-exo cyclization to afford imidazole derivatives (Scheme 76).425 A methylene-bridged diimidazolyl RhI dicarbonyl complex is an effective catalyst for the 6-endo cyclization of selected orthoalkynylanilines to give a range of benzo(dipyrroles), isoquinolines, and 1,8-dihydropyrrolo[3,2-g]indoles (Scheme 77).426 Besides the diacetamides, nonsubstituted diamines also react in good yields. With ruthenium as a catalyst metal, the cyclization of alkynyl anilides can be directed to different products by the ligand system. Saá et al. showed that whereas the 6-endo product 1,4dihydroquinoline is formed with CpRuCl(PPh3)2 (cf., Scheme 73), in the presence of a RuCl2(p-cymene) 2-methylindole is formed via 5-exo cyclization followed by isomerization (Scheme 78).420,427 2.4.3.4. 6-exo versus 7-endo Cyclization. A cationic gold complex obtained by chloride abstraction from Au(PPh)3Cl by Ag+ catalyzes the 6-exo cyclization of Boc-protected aminoalkynes to the corresponding piperazines (Scheme 79).428

Partial racemization of the chiral center occurred. A high ee was conserved in a similar transformation catalyzed by silver, as reported by Jarvo and co-workers (Scheme 71, bottom).418 A ruthenium complex was shown by Grotjahn et al. to be applicable to the 5-endo cyclization of tosamides, amidines, and primary/secondary aromatic amines (Scheme 72).419 The proposed mechanism involves attack of the N−H nucleophile on a vinylidene intermediate.

The intramolecular hydroamidation of 1,4-diynes provided oxazepines exclusively, rather than the thermodynamically favored 6-exo cyclization products (Scheme 80).429 Unprotected primary amines and carboxamides (i.e., benzamides and trifluoroacetamides) failed to react under the same conditions. Takemoto et al. reported a complementary set of methods also for 6-exo- versus 7-endo-selective intramolecular hydroamidations of certain α-propargylamino amides (Scheme 81).430 Whereas bismuth triflate promotes 6-exo-cyclization, PtCl2 catalyzes the formation of 1,4-diazepanone derivatives via 7-endo cyclization. 2.4.3.5. 7-exo versus 8-endo Cyclization.

2.4.3.6. Internal Alkynes: 4-exo versus 5-endo Cyclization. In the presence of hydroamidation catalysts, 5-amidoalkynes cyclize easily to the 5-endo products, whereas the corresponding 4-exo cyclization is more difficult to achieve. The 5-endoselective intramolecular hydroamidation of 2-alkynyl anilides, in particular, has found widespread application for the synthesis of indole derivatives. Various catalyst systems are known, including copper salts,432 palladium salts,433 RhI/BINAP,434 or Pd/Cu bimetallic system.435 These are covered in the recent review about synthesis of indoles.387,388 New contributions appear regularly, for example, the cyclization of 2-alkynylanilines catalyzed by Hg(OTf)2,436 and by a homogeneous silver catalyst (Scheme 83).437
Rossom and Hill reported the TBAF mediated 5-endo-dig cyclization and deprotonation of the N-tosamide to form the pyrrole ring (Scheme 85).439 The palladium catalyst could achieve the intramolecular hydroamidation to afford the corresponding N-tosyl-2,5-diaryl-2-pyrroline derivatives. The reaction sequence can be considered to commence with an initial 5-endo-dig cyclization upon deprotonation of the Ntosamide, followed by deprotection through elimination of sulfinic acid, and finally tautomerization leads to formation of the pyrrole ring. Substituted pyrroles can be obtained by Au/Ag or Aucatalyzed intramolecular 5-endo-dig hydroamidation/elimination reactions of homopropargyl amine derivatives. The groups of Aponick and Akai both reported a version involving dehydration (Scheme 86, top),440,441 and Kimper and coworkers presented a related protocol with dehydrofluorination (Scheme 86, bottom).442

Nakamura’s cyclization of 2-alkynylanilides with sulfonyl group migration is a remarkable variation of this old reaction. The sulfonyl group originally attached to the aniline nitrogen migrates to the 3-position in the AuIII-catalyzed version, whereas InIII catalysis results in its migration to the 6-position (Scheme 84).438 A mechanistic rationale for the differences between Au and In was not provided.
An interesting sequence to efficiently access trisubstituted pyrroles from simple N-sulfonyl propargylamines involves a dimeric RhI-catalyzed head-to-tail dimerization, followed by AuIII-catalyzed 5-endo-selective intramolecular hydroamidation of the resulting homopropargylic amides (Scheme 87).443 Gouault et al. showed that with gold(III) oxide catalysts, equilibrium enol formation is completely suppressed and stereogenic centers of α-amino-ynone derivatives are conserved in the hydroamidation step (Scheme 88).444 In contrast, full racemization of the chiral center in the pyrrolin-4-one products was observed when instead using an AuCl catalyst under nonbasic conditions. In 2013, the same group achieved the total synthesis of (−)-epimyrtine through the related AuI-catalyzed

were obtained via palladium-catalyzed 4-exo-dig cyclization, whereas γ-lactams were obtained in the presence of TBAF. The gem-difluoro moiety should incline the α-position for intramolecular nucleophilic attack by the nitrogen atom. It was proposed that the initial alkyne activation occurs via coordination of Pd0 with C−C triple bond, the process of which increases the p character of the alkyne carbons, resembling an sp2-like hybridization. This pseudohybridization could favor 4-exo-dig cyclization. 2.4.3.7. 5-endo versus 6-exo Cyclization. Acetamidines may undergo 5-endo versus 6-exo cyclization, depending on which nitrogen atom forms the new bond to the alkyne carbon. The intramolecular hydroamidation of N-(ortho-alkynyl)aryl-N′substituted trifluoroacetamidines and bromodifluoroacetamidines by Wu et al. demonstrates that transition metal catalysts are able to invert the usual selectivity of the cyclization (Scheme 90).446 Whereas base promotes the 6-exo-selective addition of the other amidine N−H across the C−C triple bond, the gold catalyst gives only 5-endo hydroamination products in analogy to the examples discussed above. 2.4.3.8. 5-exo versus 6-endo Cyclization. For 6-amidoalkynes, the regioselectivity of the hydroamidation is more complex. Typically, these substrates undergo 5-exo cyclization in the presence of hydroamidation catalysts,447,448 but the examples below show that 6-endo cyclization may occur for certain substrates using a range of metal catalysts, including Cu, Ag, Au/Ag, and Pd catalysts.
In the examples below, the 6-endo cyclization products are obtained selectively. Interestingly, all start from aryl-substituted alkynes and contain a CO, SO2, or P(O)OR group that is part of the newly formed ring. This would seem to imply that the selectivity is substrate-dependent, and that for this reversible reaction type, the greater delocalization and lower ring strain in the resulting 6-endo products as compared to 5exo products may be contributing factors toward this endo selectivity. In 2007, Pal and co-workers achieved a CuI-catalyzed 6-endodig cyclization of 2-alkynyl benzenesulfonamides to give 2H1,2-benzothiazine 1,1-dioxides at 140 °C in DMF. The same hydroamidation proceeded within 5 min at 80 °C when replacing CuI by 15 mol % AgSbF6 and 3 equiv of Et3N in ethanol (Scheme 92).451 The Pal group went on to report AgNO3/DMF as a less costly and moisture-sensitive alternative to AgSbF6.452 Scheme 92.

the open-chain ether and the 6-endo products for the cyclic ether derivative. Takemoto et al. also utilized AuI-catalyzed 6endo-dig hydroamidations of (2-alkynyl)benzyl carbamates to synthesize various 1,2-dihydroisoquinolines including the nitidine alkaloids.460 Starting from acyclic propargylic amide derivatives,461−464 the choice of the catalyst appears to be the main factor dictating the selectivity for 5-exo or 6-endo cyclization. Pd(OAc)2 has been shown by Bäckvall et al. to catalyze the 5-exo-selective intramolecular hydroamidation of a variety of substituted propargyl ureas, thioureas, carbamates, and thiocarbamates. The reaction is highly effective for the synthesis of fivemembered heterocycles including oxazolidinones, oxazolidinethiones, imidazolidinones, and imidazolidinethiones (Scheme 97).461,462 In contrast, RhII complexes lead to the 6-endo-dig products starting from either propargyl guanidines or ureas. Thus, Looper et al. used two different dimeric RhII complexes to catalyze the formation of dihydropyrimidinones and eneguanidines (Scheme 98).463,464 The same propargyl guanidines undergo 5-exo-selective hydroamidation in the presence of AgOAc/AcOH instead of RhII as a catalyst (Scheme 99, path a).463 This reaction type can also be performed with in situ formation of the guanidine by addition of the propargylic amine to a carbodiimide.465 Such hydroamidations have been applied to the total synthesis of (+)-saxitoxin,466 S-(−)-crambidine,467 and (−)-cyclooroidin.468 Propargyl ureas (X = O) are generally prepared in situ from the propargylic amines and isocyanates. For R4 = aryl, the product undergoes an additional isomerization of the double bond (Scheme 99, path b).469 When R4 is a tosyl residue, silver(I) catalyzes a 5-exo-selective intramolecular hydroamidation of the propargylic amines and isocyanates to the 2imidazolones (Scheme 99, path b′).470 The same N-tosyl substrates give oxazolidin-2-imines following 5-exo-addition of the urea oxygen to the alkyne when a cationic gold complex is used instead of AgOTf (Scheme 99, path c).470 In contrast, cationic gold catalyzes the 6-endo-addition of the urea nitrogen to the alkyne, affording the corresponding N-aryl or alkyl substrates with formation of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones (Scheme 99, path d).471 On the basis of these examples, it is hard to predict either the N/O- or the exo/endo selectivity for this substrate class when using silver or gold catalysts. It would be interesting to see whether endo products could be obtained when using rhodium catalysts (cf., Scheme 98). 2.4.3.9. 6-exo versus 7-endo Cyclization. Takemoto et al. reported a hydroamidation in which the 6-exo versus 7-endo selectivity could be controlled by the catalyst system.430 Whereas 6-exo hydroamidation of the phenylpropargyl amine substrates occurs in the presence of a cationic gold complex,183 a PtCl2 catalyst selectively gives the 7-endo cyclization products (Scheme 100), in analogy to the hydroamidation of terminal
In their Au/Ag-catalyzed cyclization of alkynyl ureas, Kundu et al. observed a strong counterion effect on the chemoselectivity (Scheme 93).453 Thus, 6-endo-dig N-cyclization occurred in the presence of AuI/AgOTf, whereas AuI/AgNO3 led to 6-endo-dig O-cyclization. Scheme 93. Counterion Effect in AuI/AgI-Catalyzed Chemoselective Cyclization
The 6-endo-dig cyclization products are selectively obtained also in the palladium-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation of N-alkyl-o-ethynylbenzamides reported by Sashida et al. (Scheme 94).454 The same catalyst was also able to convert the structurally related phosphonamides under slightly modified conditions (Scheme 94).455,456 Scheme 94.

In the hydroamidation of o-alkynylbenzyl carbamates by Catalán et al., a clear substrate dependence of the endo/exo selectivity of the cyclization step was observed (Scheme 95).457,458 With gradually increasing numbers of α-fluorine atoms, the ratio of 5-exo to 6-endo cyclization was shifted from 40:60 for CH3 to 80:20 for CF3. Very similar substrates gave the opposite regioselectivity with the same cationic gold catalyst in the example by Fujii and Ohno (Scheme 96).182,459 In this case, ring strain in the product appears to be the main contributor to this selectivity, the expected 5-exo hydroamidation products being obtained for

Scheme 96. Substrates Control the Regioselectivity of Intramolecular Hydroamidation
A related process was employed by Liu et al. to synthesize substituted pyrroles from the corresponding N-phthalyl alkynylaziridines (Scheme 104).476 The mechanism was elucidated on the basis of deuterium labeling experiments. As in the example above, addition of the aziridine nitrogen to the gold-activated alkyne followed by ring opening leads to a cationic alkenyl-AuI intermediate, which undergoes 1,2-hydrogen migration and deauration to generate the pyrrole product. Related processes were described by the Hou and Davies groups.477,478 Starting from N-tosyl alkynylaziridines, the regioselectivity is determined by the counterion on the gold catalyst (Scheme 105).479 Only in the presence of the extremely weakly coordinating triflate counterion does the reaction follow a pathway involving an 1,2-aryl shift in the alkenyl-Au I intermediate to afford the 2,4-substituted pyrrole, whereas the slightly more strongly coordinating tosylate is sufficient to move the preference toward a 1,2-hydrogen shift, resulting in the 2,5-substituted pyrrole. A similar reaction reported by Aguilar and co-workers involves an intramolecular hydroamidation of internal alkynes with opening of a cyclopropane instead of an aziridine ring (Scheme 106).184 This NHC−gold-catalyzed reaction proceeds only for substrates bearing a donor−acceptor substituent (respectively, −OMe, −CONR) on the cyclopropane ring, and leads to seven-membered cyclic dienamides.

Caprazamycins are lipo-nucleoside antibiotics, which show antibacterial activity against, for example, Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Mitchell reported a palladium-catalyzed 7-endo-selective hydroamidation leading to 3-benzazepinones (Scheme 101).472 This palladium-catalyzed transformation is limited to alkyl-substituted alkynes. Liu’s complementary 7-endo cyclization of 2-(1-alkynyl)phenylacetamides, which bear an aryl substituent on the alkyne group, requires an Au/Ag catalyst (Scheme 101).473 A similar 7-endo-dig hydroamidation in the presence of 10 mol % Pd(PhCN)2Cl2 in THF at 60 °C provides access to the 1,3-dihydro-2H-3-benzazepin-2-one scaffold (Scheme 102).474 2.4.3.10.

Starting from propargylic acyl aziridines, intramolecular hydroamidations proceed with 5endo cyclization and rearrangement of the three-membered ring to the corresponding pyrroles. Ph3PAuCl/AgOTf was shown to be an efficient catalyst for this reaction type. Zhang et al. employed fused bicyclic aziridines as the substrates, and proposed a mechanism that starts with activation of the C−C triple bond by AuI coordination. The subsequent 5-endoselective addition of the aziridine nitrogen to the activated alkyne leads to a nitrogen-centered cation, which then undergoes ring-opening by cleavage of the N−C2 bond. The resulting spirocyclic intermediate bearing an allylic cation finally rearranges to the fused pyrrole through a Wagner−Meerwein process (Scheme 103).475
2.5. Other Nitrogen Nucleophiles
The coordination of soft, strongly Lewis acidic late transition metals strongly activates the C−C multiple bonds enabling not only the attack of primary or secondary amines and amides but also of various other nitrogen nucleophiles. Hydrazines and imidates with N−H moieties react via the usual hydroamidation mechanisms. Late transition metals also promote intramolecular C−N bond formations from alkynes and nitrogen nucleophiles without N−H bonds. Such transformations, which are not true hydroaminations but mechanistically related, are unknown for early transition metals or rare earth metals. 2.5.1. Addition of Hydrazines to Alkynes.

A 1,2-hydride shift and the release of the gold catalyst give the final product.

Triazenes can also attack the C−C triple bond through AgI-catalyzed N−N bond cleavage or an intramolecular cyclization without cleavage of any N−N bond.

2.5.3. Addition of Aldoximes to Alkynes. In contrast to the previously described reactions, imines and the following substrate classes do not contain a N−H moiety. In consequence, these compounds cannot undergo hydroamination/hydroamidation reactions in a classic manner. The transition metal-mediated cyclization of alkynes containing a nucleophile in proximity to the C−C triple bond has been extensively used to synthesize N- or O-heterocycles.213 Shin et al. reported the efficient cyclization of 2alkynylbenzaldoxime derivatives to afford the corresponding isoquinoline-N-oxides in the presence of a IMesAuOTf complex under mild reaction conditions (Scheme 113).495,496 In the AgI-catalyzed cyclization reaction of o-alkynylaryl aldoxime derivatives, a dramatic substituent effect was observed (Scheme 114).497,498 When R represents an alkyl or allyl group, the AgI-catalyzed reaction in DMA at 110 °C affords isoquinolines in good to excellent yields.498 In contrast, isoquinolin-1(2H)-ones are obtained in moderate to high yields at room temperature in DMF, when R equals an acetyl group.497

In this way, tri- and tetrasubstituted pyrroles can be synthesized starting from homopropargyl and cyclobutyl azides. Hiroya et al. reported the PtCl4-catalyzed cyclization of homopropargyl azide derivatives to form pyrroles, using ethanol as solvent and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylpyridine as the base.506 DFT calculation of the Au- and Pt-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of homopropargyl azides indicates that the isomerization of 2H-pyrrole to 1H-pyrrole is an intermolecular process in which a second 2H-pyrrole is responsible for a proton shift.507 Moreover, TMS-azides can react with alkynes to vinyl-azides that can be further converted into nitriles, amides, or tetrazoles (Scheme 119). When the reaction is carried out in the presence of Ag2CO3, terminal alkynes can be converted to alkyl and aryl nitriles by cleavage of the C−C triple bond.508 Furthermore, Jiao reported the synthesis of amides starting from internal diaryl alkynes in a PPh3AuCl-catalyzed reaction.509 Echavarren applied a gold-mediated protocol for the synthesis of tetrazoles starting from terminal alkynes.510 Bi and co-workers reported the Ag2CO3-catalyzed hydroazidation of alkynes to synthesize 2-azidoallyl alcohols in good to excellent yields (Scheme 120).511 The control experiments

The initial 5-exo versus 6-endo cyclization of the acyl group and the activated alkyne of a propargylic ester depends on the electronic effects of the substituents and can be controlled by the ratio of 1,3- to 2,3-disubstituted indolizines. A number of examples exist in which the 2-alkynyl imine is formed in one pot by condensation of an alkynyl ketone and ammonia or an equivalent, and subsequent catalytic addition of the imine to the alkyne (Scheme 129).

3. CATALYTIC ADDITION OF NITROGEN NUCLEOPHILES TO ALLENES Allenes are highly versatile synthetic synthons in preparative organic chemistry due to the high reactivity of their cumulated double bonds. As compared to intermolecular additions to allenes, intramolecular nucleophilic additions with transition metals received much more attention.557 Especially gold, silver, and platinum catalysts have been extensively used in the addition of nitrogen nucleophiles to allenes due to their soft and carbophilic character.214,558 Late transition metals have been extensively used in intermolecular hydroaminations of allenes with anilines and aliphatic secondary amines. As a complementary strategy, the early transition metals could promote the intermolecular hydroamination of allenes with primary aliphatic amines.559 Bases and various transition metals can mediate the intramolecular hydroamidation of allenes, while intermolecular processes require Au or Pd complexes as the catalysts. Especially gold complexes are known to catalyze intermolecular hydroamidation of internal allenes.

are obtained by condensation of (2-ethynylphenyl)alkanones and ammonia followed by hydroamination.539,540 This strategy also serves to efficiently access other heterocycles such as pyrido[3,4-c]thiazoles,541 pyrido[3,4-b]indoles,542 pyrrolo[1,2a]pyrazines,543,544 and isoquinolines.545 A variation of the above sequence consists of the AgIcatalyzed reaction of o-alkynyl aldehydes with amines, yielding fused isoquinolines, naphthyridines, and thienopyridines.546,547 An AuIII-mediated condensation/hydroamination process developed by Chen starts from 2-alkynyl benzamides and ammonium acetate and gives access to pharmaceutically interesting 1-aminoisoquinolines (Scheme 130).548 The condensation between alkynyl ketones or aldehydes and hydrazines leads to hydrazones, which cyclize in the presence of copper iodide to afford pyrazole derivatives (Scheme 131).549,550 This strategy has been used to synthesize 2,7disubstituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines from enediynones and hydrazine.551 However, stoichiometric amounts of CuCl are needed for the transformation (cf., Scheme 48).

proposed that the reaction is initiated by the oxidative addition of acetic acid to Pd0.

provide excellent regioselectivities for the branched product and high ee (see section 3.3.3). The Breit group reported a new catalytic system, which provides a N2- versus N1-selective coupling of benzotriazoles with allenes (Scheme 142).196 This work is the first example of N2-selective hydroamination of allenes with benzotriazoles using a rhodium/DPEphos system. In sharp contrast, the rhodium/JoSPOphos system provides the N1-allylation product exclusively. Isotopic labeling and stoichiometric experiments indicate that a Rh−H species is formed by oxidative addition toward the N−H bond of benzotriazoles, followed by migratory insertion, amination, and reductive elimination to yield the final product. Breit et al. also reported a [Rh(cod)Cl]2/DPEphos system, which efficiently promotes the hydroamination of allenes with anilines to afford the branched allylic amine in good yield (Scheme 143).197 Using chiral ligands instead of DPEphos, a high ee and an increase of the yield by 25% can be observed (see section 3.3.3). Similarly, hydroaminations of C-(tetra-Oacetyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl)allene with various aromatic primary amines can be achieved with a palladium complex in yields up to 42%.582 In 2010, Kimber’s group reported an intermolecular hydroamination of allenamides with arylamines using the well-known π-acidic properties of cationic gold complexes, which provides an efficient method to synthesize E-enamide derivatives (Scheme 144).583 3.3.2. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Internal Allenes. In 2006, Yamamoto and co-workers reported the first gold-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination of internal allenes (Scheme 145).584,585 The reaction is conducted in the presence of 10 mol % AuBr3 at ambient temperature. In addition, when allenes with axial chirality were used, the products were obtained in high ee values. This strongly supported that a gold−amine complex was formed, instead of a π-allyl gold complex. The reaction might be initiated by a coordination of the allene to the gold−amine complex to form the intermediate C, followed by allene insertion and protodeauration to the final product. However, in 2013, Toste and Bergman found that gold−amide intermediates were unreactive to π-bonds, which suggested the hydroamination of π-bonds took place via an outer-sphere mechanism.586 3.3.3. Intermolecular Asymmetric Hydroamination of Allenes. In 2012, Breit and co-workers reported a RhI/ Josiphos system for the first intermolecular asymmetric hydroamination of allenes with anilines (Scheme 146).197 First mechanistic studies on the base of deuterium-labeling
To enhance the activity of the PdII complexes, they designed a series of alicyclic 3-iminophosphine ligands. Employing these ligands in the hydroamination of 1,1-dimethylallene, cyclohexylallene, benzylallene, and selected aryl allenes with alkyl amines yielded the branched substituted allylamine product with nearly quantitative conversions at ambient temperature in less than 1 h. Using phenylallene and 1,1-diphenylallene with secondary amines under the same conditions, the linear hydroamination product can be obtained with high selectivity (Scheme 139).579 Under the same conditions, aniline derivatives selectively led to the kinetic Markovnikov product.580 Scheme 139.

On the basis of the NHC/gold-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of allenes200 and dinuclear gold complexcatalyzed intramolecular asymmetric hydroamidation of allenes,194,591−597 Widenhoefer et al. developed an asymmetric version of the hydroamidation of allenes with N-nonsubstituted carbamates based on a dinuclear gold complex and accompanying silver salts. This catalyst system provides asymmetric allylic amines in excellent yields and up to 92% ee (Scheme 152).201
3.4.1. Intermolecular Hydroamidation of Terminal Allenes. In 1997, Yamamoto et al. reported a Pd-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of allenes with sulfonamides to give allylic amines (Scheme 149).576 Unfortunately, under the described reaction conditions, a mixture of hydroamidation and dihydroamidation products is usually obtained. The catalytically active species in this process is a Pd−H species as described before (see Scheme 43). 3.4.2. Intermolecular Hydroamidation of Internal Allenes. In 2008, Widenhoefer employed a NHC−gold complex in intermolecular hydroamidations of allenes with primary carbamates (Scheme 150, top).200 A similar cationic

Breit et al. reported a Rh-catalyzed intermolecular asymmetric hydroamidation of terminal allenes with the relatively acidic N-nucleophile 2-pyridone (Scheme 153).199 Depending on the choice of the phosphine ligand, the N- versus Ochemoselectivity was excellent and enantioselectivities were high. Strong electron-withdrawing groups on the 2-pyridone can accelerate the reaction and require lower catalyst loadings, while electron-rich 2-pyridones only give moderate yields even in the presence of 5 mol % rhodium catalyst. 2-Pyridones substituted in the 3-, 4-, and 5-positions reacted smoothly to give the N-allylated products, whereas 6-chloropyridone gave only the O-allylated product, presumably for steric reasons. 3.4.4. Intramolecular Hydroamidation of Allenes. Intramolecular hydroamidations of allenes were initially performed mostly using silver tetrafluoroborate as catalyst. The selective 5- or 6-endo-trig cyclization affords 2,5-dihydro1H-pyrroles,598,599 tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-c]oxazol-3-ones, or 3,6-dihydro-1H-pyridones, respectively (Scheme 154).600 Starting from allenyl sulfonamides, the use of silver nitrate allows for 5-endo-trig hydroamidation in acetone at room temperature (Scheme 155).601 By contrast, the use of tert-
gold catalyst was reported to promote intermolecular hydroamidations of allenes with sulfonamides to generate N-allylic amides (Scheme 150, bottom).588 The reaction is highly regioselective for both 1,1- and 1,3-disubstituted or trisubstituted allenes. 3.4.3. Intermolecular Asymmetric Hydroamidation of Allenes. In 2012, Rhee et al. reported the first palladiumcatalyzed intermolecular asymmetric hydroamidation of monosubstituted allenes (Scheme 151).589 This reaction provides an efficient access to chiral N,O-acetals by the enantioselective hydroamidation of alkoxyallenes. Later, the formation of cyclic N,O-acetals was also demonstrated by a cascade hydroamidation with concomitant ring-closing metathesis.590 It is worth mentioning that the change of the ligand could decrease

Ongoing work extended the substrate scope to internal allenes by using AuI and AuCl3 as catalysts.604 In 2005, Yamamoto et al. reported the Pd(PPh3)4/PPh3catalyzed isomerization of alkynes to allenes in benzene at 100 °C, followed by intramolecular hydroamidation of the in situ formed allenes, which are tethered with a protected amino group (Scheme 158, top).605 Later, the same group extended this strategy to afford six-membered lactams (Scheme 158, bottom).606

The first cyclization of N-monosubstituted allenic carboxamides was reported by Brandsma et al. in 2002 (Scheme 156).602 In the presence of AgI salts, dihydrofuran and dihydropyrrole derivatives can be formed via attack of the oxygen or nitrogen atom to the allene functionality.
Liu et al. described a palladium-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation of N-(γ-allenyl)tosylamides (Scheme 159).607 In a mechanistic sense, the active XPd−H catalyst is formed in situ by the oxygen promoted oxidation of isopropyl alcohol to acetone. This XPd−H species does not suffer a possible reductive elimination of H−X, but allene inserts into XPd−H species to form a π-allyl−PdII intermediate. Reductive elimination leads to the hydroamidation products and formation of a Pd0 species, which is readily reoxidized by molecular oxygen to close the catalytic cycle. Recent progress in the development of new catalyst systems was achieved by using gold as the preferred metal for the transition metal-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation of allenes. In 2004, Krause et al. reported the AuCl3-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation and hydroamination of allenes to achieve the corresponding 3-pyrrolines in good to excellent yields. The amine protecting group has a significant influence on the reactivity and chirality of the transformation (Scheme 160).570 The same group later found that the low activity of the unprotected α-aminoallenes could be enhanced by AuCl (Scheme 160).571 Mechanistic investigations suggest that the AuI complex is the catalytically active species, even when AuCl3 was used as precursor.

If allenic hydroxylamine ethers are used as substrates, the chemoselectivity is shifted either toward the dihydroisoxazoles in the presence of a cationic gold precatalyst, or to the dihydrooxazines by using N-Boc-protected precursors. Later, the same group used this method for the intramolecular 5-endo-hydroamination of primary amines with an allene moiety to construct azafuranomycin analogues in good yields.621 3.5.2.

In 2007, the Toste group found a new strategy toward asymmetric transition metal-catalyzed intramolecular cyclizations of allenes that employs chiral counterions.595,596,622 They showed that a dinuclear gold complex in combination with the chiral silver salt (S)-TriPAg effectively mediates the intramolecular asymmetric hydroamination of allenes with hydrazines and hydroxylamines (Scheme 172).597
4. CATALYTIC ADDITION OF NITROGEN NUCLEOPHILES TO UNCONJUGATED ALKENES 4.1. Aliphatic Amines
Because of the unfavorable competition between weakly coordinating alkenes and strongly coordinating aliphatic amines, the hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes with aliphatic amines is very difficult to achieve. It is understandable that the intermolecular version is much more challenging as compared to the intramolecular version. Some early transition metal catalysts such as zirconium, 180 lanthanum, and magnesium complexes are active catalysts for the enantioselective intramolecular hydroamination of alkenes.177,627 Catalyst systems based on rare-earth metals such as lanthanum complexes give the intermolecular Markovnikov hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes in excellent yields with moderate enantioselectivities.628,629 Late transition metals, as well as heavier group II complexes and ytterbium catalysts,630,631 are able to give the linear tertiary amines via anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of styrenes with amines. They could also promote the enantioselective intramolecular hydroamination of alkenes to generate five- or six-membered chiral amines. 4.1.1. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Ethylene. The first examples of transition metal-catalyzed homogeneous hydroamination reactions were reported by Coulson in 1971 (Scheme 175).632 Both RhI and RhIII complexes can effectively

Mechanistic studies revealed that the overall transformation is first order to the allene and the catalyst reagent and zero order with regard to the nucleophiles. Control experiments indicate that the rate-limiting step consists of the allene activation.623 Recently, Shapiro and Rauniyar found that dithiophosphoric acids could promote the intramolecular asymmetric hydroamidation of allenes and 1,3-dienes without metal catalysts. The reaction proceeds via addition of the acid catalyst to the all-carbon π-system, followed by nucleophilic displacement of the resulting dithiophosphate intermediate.624 3.5.3.

Intermolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkenes. In 1999, Beller and co-workers reported the first transition metal-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of styrenes. They use a catalyst species generated in situ from cationic [Rh(cod)2]BF4 and PPh3 (Scheme 176).218,219 Control experiments indicate that the anti-Markovnikov hydroamination proceeds via protonolysis of an alkyl−rhodium intermediate, rather than via hydrogenation of an enamine formed in situ.

oxidative anti-Markovnikov hydroamination products,107,108 the use of morpholine leads to a higher yield of the hydroamination product as compared to other amines. The role of the morpholine may be to coordinate to the rhodium center through its oxygen atom, thereby stabilizing the alkyl−rhodium complex and inhibiting β-hydride elimination. Hartwig and co-workers used a cationic rhodium complex that can be easily activated by addition of DPEphos ligand to achieve a regioselective hydroamination of vinylarenes with various secondary amines (Scheme 177).205 An excess of DPEphos ligand increases the yield of the hydroamination product, while the closely related Xantphos and DBFphos give little or no hydroamination product. Scheme 177. Rh-Catalyzed anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Vinylarenes Scheme 179. (η6-Styrene)-ruthenium-Catalyzed antiMarkovnikov Hydroamination
The efficiency of the anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of vinylarenes with secondary amines could be further improved and extended to the hydroamination of α-methylstyrenes.220 The anti-Markovnikov products can be obtained in up to 96% yield and up to >99% selectivity, in the presence of 5 mol % [Ru(cod)(2-methylallyl)2], 7 mol % 1,5-bis-diphenylphosphinopentane (DPPPent), and 10 mol % TfOH. Both the ligand and the acid are essential for these transformations. In contrast to activated alkenes such as styrenes, 1,3-dienes, or strained cyclic olefins, electronically nonactivated and unstrained 1-alkenes have low tendency to undergo hydroamidations and especially hydroaminations. The main reason is the low affinity of 1-alkenes toward transition metals, so that they cannot compete for coordination sites with amines, which are much stronger donor ligands. Hull et al. have incorporated a Lewis-basic, coordinating imine functional group into the alkenes, which directs the alkene moiety toward the metal center and induces hydroamination reactivity (Scheme 178).204 Moreover, the metallacyclic intermediate promotes hydroamination over β-hydride elimination. The reaction affords 1,2diamines in good to excellent yields and high diastereoselectivities. Other Lewis-basic groups, such as amines, amides, and imides, were unsuccessful in this context. In addition, (η6-styrene)-ruthenium complexes were later found to promote the anti-Markovnikov hydroamination in a different way (Scheme 179).634 The control experiments strongly indicate that these transformations occur via nucleophilic attack on an in situ formed η6-vinylarene complex and exchange of the anti-Markovnikov product with a second vinylarene.

were not observed. A variety of functional groups, such as hydroxy, halogen, cyano, and carboalkoxy groups, are tolerated by this hydroamination catalyst system. Mechanistic investigations on the hydroamination of secondary amines showed that the Rh−C bond cleavage is the rate-limiting step, which could also be observed with Pd, Pt, and Ir.643 Hollis and coworkers found that CCC−NHC Rh and Ir pincer complexes are also efficient and stable catalysts for such cyclization reactions.644 In the RhI-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes with primary amines, the authors found that the nucleophilic addition of the amine toward the coordinated olefin is the rate-limiting step. Usually, basic nitrogen nucleophiles, such as alkylamines, are not suitable as substrates for such reactions because they are strong ligands and inactivate the catalyst via coordination to the electrophilic transition metal center. The main difference between RhI- and PdII-catalyzed hydroaminations is that alkenes coordinated to RhI are less electrophilic than alkenes coordinated to PdII. Thus, more nucleophilic amines are expected to react with the rhodium-bound alkenes, whereas less nucleophilic amines should attack the palladium-bound alkenes (Scheme 185).645 In 2006, Hartwig and co-workers reported the first intramolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of nonactivated olefins (Scheme 186). 203 The reaction proceeds selectively in the presence of [Rh(cod)(DPPB)]BF4 in good yields. Kuwata and Ikariya reported a series of iridium-pyrazole bifunctional catalysts for the intramolecular hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes (Scheme 187).646,647 The authors proposed two mechanistic pathways and emphasized the importance of the β-nitrogen group in the bifunctional pyrazole/pyrazolato complexes A regardless of which mechanism is operative. More mechanistic details were presented by DFT calculations,648 and the catalyst system for this type of intramolecular hydroamination was expanded to RhI and IrI complexes with bifunctional pyrazolyl-1,2,3-triazolyl ligands.649 Gold-catalyzed hydroamidations with carboxamide derivatives and sulfonamides have been extensively studied (see section 4.4). However, gold catalysis is less established for the hydroamination of alkenes. In 2008, Widenhoefer et al. reported the first gold-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes with ammonium salts (Scheme 188).650 In 2010, Sakurai and Kitahara reported moisture- and airstable gold nanoclusters stabilized by a poly(N-vinyl-2pyrrolidone) polymer as versatile catalysts for the intramolecular cycloaddition of primary amines to nonactivated alkenes.651 The authors proposed that O2 is initially adsorbed to the gold surface to form the electron-deficient reactive site. Roesky et al. recently described the high catalytic activity of bimetallic Au-based nanoparticles (Au−M where M = Pt, Pd, Cu, Ni) for the Markovnikov hydroamination of 2,2diphenylpent-4-en-1-amine to the five-membered product.652 A zinc-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes was reported by Roesky and co-workers.

4.1.5. Intramolecular Hydroamination of Alkenes. In comparison with the hydroamination of alkynes, the hydroamination of nonactivated olefins remains challenging, although the attack of nucleophiles across olefins complexed to PtII has been known for more than a century.636 In an early publication, Zambonelli et al. discovered that platinum can promote the cyclization of 4-pentenyl-amine.637,638 A number of γ- and σamino olefins can be used for an intramolecular hydroamination in the presence of [PtCl2(C2H4)]2 to form the corresponding pyrrolidine derivatives in moderate to good yields (Scheme 182).639 The catalyst system shows excellent Scheme 182.

functional group tolerance and low moisture sensitivity. Control experiments supported a mechanism initiated by the formation of platinum amine complex trans-I. C−N bond formation presumably occurs via intramolecular ligand exchange followed by outer-sphere attack of the adjacent amine of the olefin II to form III. Deprotonation/chloride displacement of species III followed by an intermolecular protonolysis of the Pt−C bond of trans-IV leads to the intermediate VI. In the last step, trans-I is regenerated by ligand exchange and the product is released. Westcott et al. reported a ligand-free PdI2-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of 3-(vinyloxy)propylamine at room temperature (Scheme 183).640 Pd−P and Pd−N complexes supported on SiO2, Al2O3, and TiO2 were also shown to catalyze the hydroamination of this substrate.641 In 2008, Hartwig and co-workers reported several RhIcatalyzed hydroaminations of nonactivated alkenes with primary and secondary alkylamines (Scheme 184).642 Following this method, cyclic amines can be obtained in excellent yields.

In 2014, Hannedouche et al. reported an intramolecular hydroamination of primary aliphatic alkenyl amines using a well-defined four-coordinate FeII complex as catalyst (Scheme 190).655 Stoichiometric experiments indicate that this transformation proceeds via a stepwise σ-insertion of the alkene into an iron−amido bond.

4.3.1. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Ethylene. The precatalyst PtBr2 is extensively used for the hydroamination of ethylene. In 2004, Brunet and co-workers reported the first platinum-catalyzed hydroamination of ethylene with arylamines.662 The authors claimed that the basicity of the amine substrates is critical for the transformation. For less basic amines, much higher TONs were observed. Reacting ethylene with the weakly basic 2-chloroaniline and the PtBr2/H+ catalyst (1.0 mol %) for 3 days at 150 °C gave Nethyl-2-chloroaniline in nearly quantitative yield (Scheme 195).
4.2. Aliphatic and Aromatic Amines
4.2.1. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Alkenes. The anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of styrene with secondary aliphatic amines is achieved by using Ru and Rh complexes (see section 4.1.2). In 2008, Gunnoe et al. reported the first coppercatalyzed anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of styrenes with anilines and aliphatic amines using 5 mol % of a monomeric CuI−amido complex as the catalyst (Scheme 192).657 However, the scope of alkenes is limited to styrenes containing a strong electron-withdrawing group in the para position.

Cu-Catalyzed anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Electron-Deficient Styrenes After this seminal work, Poli663−669 and others670−677 made significant contribution to the Pt- or Rh-catalyzed hydroamination of ethylene with aromatic amines. Leitner calculated a variety of iridium and rhodium complexes with pincer ligands with DFT methods to gain insight into a possible catalytic cycle for the hydroamination of ethylene with ammonia. The results indicated that the computationally active iridium catalyst could promote the hydroamination of ethylene with ammonia.678−680 Ruthenium complexes were also shown to be effective catalysts for the hydroamination of ethylene with both anilines and aliphatic amines.681,682 4.3.2. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkenes. In contrast to Rh- and Ru-catalyzed (see chapter 4.1.2) intermolecular hydroaminations of vinylarenes with aliphatic amines, palladium-catalyzed transformations form the Markovnikov products exclusively (Scheme 196).683,684 Mechanistic studies indicated that these transformations involve an insertion of the C−C double bond into a Pd−H species, followed by an external nucleophilic attack of the amine to a η3benzyl complex.685−687 Furthermore, the combination of Pd(O2CCF3)2, DPPF, and TfOH could effectively promote the hydroamination of vinylarenes with arylamines.688
4.2.2. Intramolecular Hydroamination of Alkenes. In 2010, Stradiotto et al. reported the intramolecular hydroamination of primary and secondary alkyl or aryl amines tethered to α-olefins. The ligand-free Pt-complexes such as PtCl2 and (cod)PtCl2 were used as effective precatalysts for this intramolecular hydroamination (Scheme 193).658 Later, Shi and co-workers described that a highly effective NHC−platinum complex gives similar hydroamination products in up to 99% yield.659 In 2009, the commercially available [Ir(cod)Cl]2 was shown to be an efficient precatalyst for the intramolecular hydroamination of several nonactivated alkenes at relatively low loadings (typically 0.25−5.0 mol % Ir) and without other assisting ligands or cocatalysts (Scheme 194).660 This reaction proceeds with high chemoselectivity from benzyl protected amines. In contrast, N−Boc derivatives did not react. Subsequent mechanistic studies by Stradiotto et al. suggest AV

An Ir/diphosphine system was shown to effectively promote the reaction of norbornene with aniline in up to 95% ee. Furthermore, a remarkable effect of fluoride ions on the activity and selectivity was observed. Later, Zhou and Hartwig achieved a dramatic increase in turnover numbers and enantioselectivity for the conversion of various arylamines with norbornene by utilizing KHMDS instead of fluoride as a base.692 Shibata et al. accomplished the intermolecular asymmetric hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes (Scheme 201).223 In this transformation, the pyridine group is essential for the oxidative addition of Ir to the N−H bond due to its directing effect.
Scheme 197. Pd-Involved anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination of Olefins
Styrenes or aliphatic olefins and either primary or secondary aromatic amines are suitable substrates for this transformation. Additionally, a variety of functionalities, such as ethers, esters, aryl halides, alkyl halides, and nitro groups, were tolerated at the olefin. Currently, the intermolecular hydroamination of nonactivated olefins suffers from the large excess of olefin required. Hartwig and co-workers recently reported an Ir-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination of nonactivated olefins with indoles (Scheme 198).222 With 4 equiv of olefin, the products

Mechanistic investigations revealed that olefin insertion into an Ir−N bond is the rate-limiting step of this transformation. 4.3.3. Intermolecular Hydroamination of Internal Alkenes. Various transition metal catalysts can promote the hydroamination of norbornylene with anilines (Scheme 199). Most of these transformations can be divided into two major mechanistic pathways. One is initiated by the oxidative addition of the low-valent transition metal to the N−H bond of anilines, which was first demonstrated by Casalnuov.690 The second one goes through a carbocation mechanism.153
Transition metal-catalyzed intermolecular asymmetric hydroaminations of alkenes with alkylamines are relatively unexplored as compared to those mediated by rare earth metal catalysts.695 At this stage, a single example has been reported by Hartwig and co-workers using Pd(OCOCF3)2 and (R,R)-EtFerroTANE.688 4.3.5. Intramolecular Hydroamination of Terminal Alkenes. Knowles et al. reported a photoredox-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination of olefins involving aminium radical cations (Scheme 203).696 The proposed mechanism contains four steps: (a) amine oxidation via electron transfer; (b) turnover-limiting C−N bond formation; (c) a second single-electron transfer step to reduce the carbon-centered radical; and (d) proton transfer with release of the final N-aryl heterocyclic products.

4.4. Amides
Pd, Pt, Au, and Ir complexes are used for intermolecular hydroamidation of alkenes with Markovnikov selectivity. No example is available so far for the anti-Markovnikov hydroamidation of alkenes. It is worth mentioning that metal halides in combination with triflate salts or metal triflates are used as catalysts for Markovnikov hydroamidation of alkenes; the in situ generated protic acid might function as the catalytically active species.272,697 4.4.1. Intermolecular Hydroamidation of Ethylene. The first example of a hydroamidation of nonactivated alkenes was reported in 2004 by Widenhoefer and co-workers.698 In their initial protocol, a catalyst generated in situ from [PtCl2(C2H4)]2 and triphenylphosphine mediated the Markovnikov-selective addition of benzamides and carbamates to ethylene and propylene. Limbach et al. later used a cationic platinum bromide complex supported by tridentate NHC ligands to achieve the hydroamidation of ethylene with various amides (Scheme 204).699
cycle starts with an outer-sphere attack of the amide to a platinum−olefin π-complex, resulting in the formation of a zwitterionic platinum-alkyl intermediate. Loss of HCl from this intermediate followed by protonolysis of the Pt−C bond releases the N-alkyl-amide with regeneration of the catalytically active Pt-species. The authors reason that the high Markovnikov selectivity of the platinum-catalyzed hydroamidation of vinyl arenes might result from the zwitterionic character of the metal−olefin interaction, which places substantial positive charge on the benzylic carbon atom. Almost at the same time, Tilley reported the PtII-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of aliphatic terminal alkenes with sulfonamides to generate N-alkyl-substituted sulfonamides in excellent yield (Scheme 207).226 Kinetic studies indicated that the attack of a sulfonamide on the Pt-activated olefin is the rate-determining step.

4.4.2. Intermolecular Hydroamidation of Terminal Alkenes. Later, Widenhoefer’s [PtCl2(C2H4)]2 system698 was extended to the reaction of vinyl arenes. For these transformations, the electron-poor tris(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)phosphine proved to be the optimal ligand. The reactions were performed in mesitylene at 140 °C, tolerating electronrich, electron-poor, and hindered styrene derivatives, to afford the products in good yields (Scheme 205).172,173 Control experiments suggest that the hydroamidation of vinyl arenes is reversible at temperature above 140 °C.
The combination of an NHC-amidate-alkoxide palladium catalyst with p-TsOH displays high catalytic activity toward intermolecular hydroamidation of vinyl arenes (Scheme 208).700 In comparison to the Brønsted acid-catalyzed hydroamidation of styrenes,701 this protocol efficiently suppresses the dimerization of the vinyl arene.702 Unfortunately, the substrate scope is limited to halide-substituted and electron-rich vinyl arenes due to the fast reduction of palladium or gold complexes.

labeling experiments, the authors proposed the following reaction mechanism. A Pd−D intermediate is formed by an oxidative addition of the N-deutero imide to the in situ formed Pd0 species. The C−C double bond migratory insertion into the Pd−D bond, followed by the proximal bond cleavage and migration, formed the π-allylpalladium intermediate. Finally, product and Pd0 are generated by C−N bond reductive elimination. Later, Shi et al. extended the amide scope for this ringopening hydroamidation to sulfonamides.707 In 2005, the Yamamoto group showed that both cyclic amides and primary amines can be used for the hydroamidation or hydroamination of methylenecyclopropanes (Scheme 213).708 The first hydroamidation of cyclopropenes to afford the corresponding allylic amides in good yields was reported by Yamamoto et al. (Scheme 214).709 The same catalyst system also promotes the intermolecular hydrocarbonation of cyclopropene with carbon nucleophiles. The authors suggest that this type of transformation is initiated by oxidative addition of the Pd 0 species to the C−C bond to generate a palladacyclobutene intermediate.
formation of the Pd−H species during the aerobic alcohol oxidation process. The authors suggest that the alkylpalladium intermediate, formed by styrene insertion into the Pd−H species, is oxidized to PdIV by NFSI. Finally, reductive elimination of the C−N bond from the PdIV center generates the Markovnikov hydroamidation product and regenerates the PdII catalyst. In this PdII-to-PdIV oxidation process, the deactivation of the Pd catalyst is decreased by controlling the formation of Pd-black. In 2009, the Widenhoefer group reported a cationic gold complex-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of nonactivated alkenes (Scheme 210).206 A variety of nonactivated terminal alkenes including ethylene were converted to the corresponding intermolecular Markovnikov hydroamidation products at or below 100 °C in excellent yields. However, a vast amount of alkene (10 equiv) is essential for good yields, and only cyclic ureas are suitable amide substrates. Nevertheless, the synthesis of N-alkylamides by intermolecular hydroamidation of nonactivated alkenes still remains a significant challenge. In 2012, the Hartwig group reported an AY

proposed a three-step reaction cycle, whereby a terminal olefin is hydrofunctionalized in an anti-Markovnikov manner: (1) The olefin inserts reversibly into a Rh−H species, (2) reductive elimination of the corresponding hydroamidation product, and (3) regeneration of the active RhI−H species. The antiMarkovnikov selectivity is dictated by the insertion of the olefin, which forms the less substituted and less sterically hindered metal−alkyl intermediate. These consequent steps open the access to pyrrolidine derivatives in moderate yields and with a quite remarkable Sn2/E2 ratio.

Various gold complexes exhibit strong activity toward intramolecular hydroamidation of alkenes (Schemes 220−225). In 2012, Mikami et al. used dinuclear gold complexes with chiral phosphoric acid to achieve enantioselective intramolecular hydroamidations of N-allenyl urea, although the ee values are moderate (Scheme 233).732 The authors showed that dinuclear gold complexes significantly accelerate the cyclization process via proximal and bimetallic activation of both the alkene and the urea. In 2012, the Chemler group reported an enantioselective copper-catalyzed 5-exo-trig cyclization of aromatic N-sulfonyl-2allylamines to afford chiral 2-methylindolines under oxidative conditions (Scheme 234).733 The reaction is initiated by enantioselective aminocupration of the alkene to generate an alkyl−copper intermediate. The following homolysis affords a CuI species and a carbon radical, which abstracts a H atom from 1,4-cyclohexadiene. The copper catalyst is then in situ reoxidized by MnO2.
4.5.2. Addition of Hydrazines to Alkenes. In 2004, Carreira et al. reported a novel CoIII-catalyzed olefin hydrohydrazination reaction affording a variety of Markovnikov alkyl hydrazides (Scheme 236).735 The authors hypothesized that the olefin inserts into the in situ hydrido-cobalt species to form an alkyl−Co intermediate, followed by an addition of the N N electrophile. Subsequent reaction of the cobalt hydrazide complex with silane affords the hydrohydrazination product and regenerates the Co−H species. Notably, the olefin conjugation to an aromatic ring was found to have a significant accelerating effect on the rate of the Co-catalyzed hydrohydrazination reaction. Later, the same group improved the reaction conditions and expanded the substrate scope by changing the catalytic system to [Mn(dpm)3].736 In 2005, Carreira and co-workers applied a Co-catalyzed hydrohydrazination of dienes and enynes in a synthesis of allylic and propargylic hydrazines.737

They postulated that the LnCu−H intermediate is the key catalytic species in this transformation. In the first step, the alkene inserts into the Cu−H bond of the LnCu−H species to generate the corresponding alkyl−Cu complex. The following oxidative addition of an electrophilic amine leads to the corresponding CuIII intermediate. Reductive elimination releases the desired product and regenerates the CuI catalyst.

CATALYTIC ADDITION OF NITROGEN NUCLEOPHILES TO CONJUGATED MULTIPLE BONDS The addition of nucleophiles to conjugated multiple bonds meets another significant problem related to the control of regioselectivity. It is not too surprising that there are comparably few reports about the hydroamination and -amidation of conjugated multiple bonds. The addition of nitrogen nucleophiles to conjugated diynes can be achieved with late transition metal catalysts, such as copper or gold complexes.753−755 If enynes are used as substrates for hydroamination or hydroamidation reactions, the first addition occurs regioselectively at the triple bond with subsequent addition to the double bond.756 Intramolecular hydroaminations and hydroamidations to 1,3-dienes can be achieved with various metal catalysts and even under metal-free conditions.138

Nevertheless, a selective intermolecular hydroamination and -amidation of 1,3-dienes is still a challenge, which may soon be overcome by using late transition metal catalysts.210

5.1.2. Hydroamination of Enynes. In 1998, Yamamoto et al. reported the first intermolecular stereoselective hydroamination of conjugated enynes in the presence of a palladium(0)/acid catalytic system (Scheme 242).756 It was supposed that AcOH underwent oxidative addition to Pd0 followed by ligand exchange to generate the R2NPd−H species. Hydroamination of enynes gave the allenyl amine, which undergoes a consecutive hydroamination step to form the final product. In 2003, Gabriele et al. demonstrated that CuCl2 and PdI2 exhibit high reactivity in the cycloisomerization of Z-(2-en-4ynyl)amines to form the corresponding substituted pyrroles (Scheme 243).208 CuCl2 displays good activity for the cycloisomerization of substrates substituted at the C-3 position, while the PdI2/KI system was found to be superior in the reaction of enynamines not substituted at the C-3 position. 5.1.3. Hydroamination of Dienes. In 2002, Hartwig and co-workers reported the nickel-catalyzed hydroamination of 1,3-dienes with aliphatic amines to form allylic amines.

Alternatively, a cationic ruthenium complex in combination with HBF4·OEt2 at 60 °C can promote the addition of aniline to acyclic 1,3-dienes in moderate yields.682 5.3.3. Asymmetric Hydroamination of Dienes. In 2001, Hartwig et al. reported the palladium-catalyzed intermolecular asymmetric hydroamination of cyclohexadiene with anilines to afford the allylic amines in good yields and high enantioselectivities (Scheme 249).225 Both electron-withdrawing and

Several transition metal catalysts have been used for the regioselective intermolecular hydroamination of 1,3-dienes to afford allylic amines. Some are effective for aliphatic amines,242,757 while others are useful for the aromatic ones.682,684,762−764 However, there is still lack of a general system that allows the addition of both aryl and alkyl amines to 1,3-dienes in good yields.765 Meek and co-workers applied a carbodicarbene (CDC)−Rh complex in the hydroamination of 1,3-dienes with aryl and alkyl amines. The corresponding products were isolated in up to 97% yield and with >98:2 regioselectivity (Scheme 246).210 Generally, the (CDC)−Rh-catalyzed hydroamination of 1,3-dienes with alkyl amines requires higher reaction temperatures as compared to aryl amines.

Hydroamination of Dienes. In 2001, Ozawa and co-workers described the hydroamination of 1,3-dienes with aniline in the presence of palladium complexes supported by sp2-hybridized phosphorus compounds (Scheme 248).762 The [Pd(η3-allyl)Cl]2/Xantphos system was found to be an effective catalyst for the intermolecular hydroamination of cyclic 1,3dienes.684,763,764 In 2014, the Beller group reported the
good yields and excellent E-selectivities of N-alkenynes can be obtained when acyclic amides are used as N−H nucleophiles together with 10 mol % of the copper catalyst, whereas moderate Z-selectivities of N-alkenynes were observed when lactams were used as N-nucleophiles under similar reaction conditions. Notably, the copper catalyst achieves the selective addition of only one amide group to the diyne. In 2013, the Banwell group reported the consecutive AuIcatalyzed intramolecular hydroamidation of diynes to obtain pyrimido[1,6-a]indol-1(2H)-one derivatives in good yields (Scheme 251).767 5.4.2.

substitution between the triflate ligand and one diene, followed by nucleophilic attack of the benzyl carbamates to the activated 1,3-dienes. The authors proposed that the triflate anion can act as a proton shuttle mediating the tautomerization of benzyl carbamate and assisting protonolysis of the C−Au bond. Later, Nájera et al. found an intermolecular hydroamidation of 1,3-dienes with sulfonamides in the presence of a catalyst loading as low as 0.1 mol % [(PhO)3P]AuCl/AgOTf at room temperature.770 Besides 1,3-dienes, nonactivated alkenes are also suitable for this transformation. Terminal alkenes undergo Markovnikov hydroamination, while dienes are hydroaminated regioselectively at the less substituted double bond. Intermolecular hydroamidation of 1,3-dienes can be accomplished by using only AgOTf as the catalyst at 85 °C or room temperature.771 In 2014, Beller et al. reported the first palladium-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamidation of 1,3-dienes with amides and sulfonamides to afford the corresponding allylamides in high yield (Scheme 253).211 This method tolerates various functional groups and shows excellent regioselectivity.

Brønsted acids usually generate allylic amines as mentioned above due to the formation of η2-allyl complexes and the stability of these allyl cationic intermediates. In 2013, the Michael group accomplished the 5-exo-1,2-addition of dienes by using a pincer palladium catalyst to give homoallylic amine derivatives in good to excellent yields (Scheme 260).779 The Scheme 257.

that the AuI species coordinates to the 1,3-diene at the double bond adjacent to the arylsulfonamide to generate a η2-alkene Au complex followed by an anti-attack of the sulfonamide at the terminal position of the 1,3-diene, forming a fused bicyclic ring with a newly formed Au−C bond at the allylic position. The final product is formed by sequential allylic rearrangement of the η1-allyl-Au complex and protodemetalation. In 2011, Ramachary et al. observed a competition between intra- and intermolecular hydroamidation in the presence of 5 mol % Ph3PAuCl/AgOTf in toluene at 100 °C (Scheme 258).777 This is one of the few examples of intramolecular hydroamidations of anilines. A plausible mechanism for the formation of the phenanthridine products starts with a rather unusual intermolecular hydroamidation of the 1,3-diene moiety followed by [4 + 2] cycloadditions. The product selectivity was mainly controlled by the nature of the substituent at the nitrogen group. A variety of transition metals, such as silver triflate, cationic gold complexes, BINAP−Cu(OTf)2, FeCl3, and InBr3, are effective for intramolecular hydroaminations of conjugated acyclic aminodienes to afford allylic amines (Scheme 259).778 Lewis acids such as iodine and Brønsted acid TfOH increase the activity for hydroamidation of 1,3-dienes. Among various catalysts, (triphenylphosphine)gold(I) triflate and TfOH provide the best results. One major challenge in hydroamidations of dienes is the control of the regioselectivity. Transition metal catalysts and
observed regioselectivity arises from a 1,4-aminopalladation to form the less-substituted η1-allyl complex, then followed by the SE2′ protonation of the ally-Pd intermediate. Homoallylic alcohols can also react as pseudodienes. Thus, 2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrroles and 1,2-dihydroquinolines can be effectively synthesized by Cu(OTf)2-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of homoallylic amino alcohols under mild conditions (Scheme 261).780 Scheme 261.

oxidative C−H activation,786 and carboxylate-assisted ruthenium-catalyzed alkyne annulations by C−H/Het−H bond functionalizations.787 In many of these processes, late transition metals are used to mediate the hydroamination or hydroamidation steps. As illustrated in Scheme 265, the cascade reactions involving late transition metal-catalyzed hydroaminations or -amidations can be divided into four categories: (1) Processes that are initiated by hydroamination or -amidation steps that give rise to reactive intermediates, such as enamides that undergo follow-up reactions such as nucleophilic additions, C−H functionalizations, oxidative or reductive processes, or C−C bond cleavages. (2) Processes in which the N−H reagent consecutively adds to two or more π-bonds. (3) Processes in which N−H reagents are initially formed, for example, via a nucleophilic addition of a X−H group across imines, nitriles, or N-heterocycles and then undergo intra- or intermolecular hydroaminations or -amidations. (4) Catalytic cross-couplings between N-sources and C−C multiple bonds leading to N−H functionalized alkenes or alkynes, which subsequently undergo intramolecular hydroaminations or -amidations. It is not always easy to decide whether or not a reaction cascade involves a true hydroamination or -amidation step, that is, an addition of an N−H group across a multiple bond. In many cases, different mechanistic pathways have been postulated for seemingly related procedures, some of which involve catalytic additions of N−H groups across double bonds, others leading to very similar intermediates or products via alternative pathways that do not explicitly mention hydroamination or -amidation steps. We have decided to apply a rather liberal interpretation of the terms hydroamination and -amidation throughout this section, and thus to include reactions in which the C−N bond formation may, but need not in all instances, be rationalized by a hydroamination or -amidation process.

this transformation are enhanced by adding potential Brønsted acids. Control experiments indicated that these two products are formed through two different mechanisms. In the first case, the gold catalyst coordinates to a diene, thus facilitating an intramolecular nucleophilic addition. Protodemetalation of the newly formed complex leads to the product a. In the second pathway, gold coordinates to menthol, thus increasing its Brønsted acidity, which then protonates the dienes. The following cyclization of the nucleophile leads to product b. 5.5.

Fujii and Ohno reported another example of a hydroamination/cyclization cascade using a cationic gold complex (Scheme 268).790−792 The reaction gives access to various benzo[a]carbazoles, benzo[c]indoles, as well as azepino- or oxepino-indole derivatives, and even polycyclizations have been demonstrated.

AuI-catalyzed tandem cyclization reactions of various 1,6diyne derivatives, tethered to nitrogen or oxygen groups, have been reported by the group of Fiksdahl (Scheme 271).793 The reactions are triggered by N-nucleophiles, such as amine, amide, and sulfonamide functionalities. Depending on the substrate, the catalytic system, and reaction conditions, different regioisomers of monocyclic and bridged bicyclic heterocyclic products were obtained.797 In 2014, Wan et al. reported an efficient synthesis of fused pyrroles via hydroamination/cyclization of 2-alkynyl-propiolates, and primary amines (Scheme 272).798 According to the proposed mechanism, the enamine intermediates formed in the hydroamination step are further converted into vinyl silver intermediates, which cyclize to the products in good yields.

and regioselectivities. It is believed that the reaction proceeds via a cobalt-mediated oxidative coupling of the diyne moiety to yield a cobaltacyclopentadiene intermediate followed by proton transfer and formation of an N-coordinated cobaltacyclopentene complex. Reductive valence tautomerization and release of the cobalt mediator with Fe(NO3)3 furnishes the dienamide product. A nickel complex catalyzes a cascade involving alkyne/allene rearrangement, intermolecular hydroamination, insertion of the second alkyne residue, and rearomatization (Scheme 274).800 Pyrroles and furans bearing various secondary amino groups can be accessed this way. 6.1.2. Cascade Insertion of Two Separate Alkynes or Alkenes into an N−H Bond. In 2012, a silver-catalyzed double insertion of internal alkynes into an N−H bond was reported by Zhu et al. (Scheme 275).801 Solely the ratio of the alkynes to the anilines determines whether simple hydroamination products are formed or two molecules of the alkyne insert into the N−H bond. The reaction is strictly limited to phenylpropiolic acid esters. A similar double hydroamination followed by imine− enamine tautomerization and cycloisomerization was reported by Qian et al. It allows synthesizing 1,5-benzodiazepines from ortho-phenylenediamines and terminal alkynes (Scheme 276).802 Double hydroamination gives rise to dienamine intermediates, which then tautomerize to the enamines and cycloisomerize with formation of the seven-membered diazepine ring. N-Substituted o-phenylenediamines and terminal alkynes were found to be suitable substrates for constructing 1,5-benzodiazepines under the same conditions.803 On the basis of this strategy, fused tricyclic benzo[b][1,4]diazepines can be accessed in good yields. For activated alkynes such as ethyl propiolate, the functionalized 1,5-benzodiazepine is formed even without catalyst, whereas nonactivated alkynes require the presence of a gold catalyst.804 In contrast, in the presence of a copper catalyst, ortho-phenylenediamines and terminal alkynes undergo another hydroamination cascade to form quinoxalines instead of 1,5-benzodiazepines.805 Lei and Lu reported an intramolecular hydroamidation of ynamides followed by an intermolecular coupling with α,βunsaturated carbonyl compounds in the presence of a palladium catalyst to generate 1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones, imidazolidin-2-ones, or lactams (Scheme 277).806 The cyclization products are obtained in good yields and high chemo- and stereoselectivities via an alkyne aminopalladation/alkene insertion/protonolysis cascade. Lu807 and others808,809 used related strategies for coupling 2alkynylanilines and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds to give indole derivatives (Scheme 278). This transformation is also effectively mediated by gold810 or rhodium(I) catalysts.434 In 2010, the Patil group reported a related synthesis that is initiated by a gold-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination. The intermediately formed vinyl-gold species reacts with an exocyclic enol ether, which itself is formed via gold-catalyzed cyclization of alkynols to give indoles bearing cyclic ethers (Scheme 279).811 6.1.3.

transformation is so far restricted to nonsubstituted acrolein in combination with allenes bearing simple hydrocarbon substituents. Because allenes are more reactive than α,βunsaturated aldehydes, acrolein needs to be used in 15-fold excess to suppress homocoupling of the allene. 6.1.4. Cascade Insertion of C−C and C−O Double Bonds into an N−H Bond. In 2014, Kanai et al. reported an N−H bond addition to a C−C and a C−O double bond to generate indole derivatives.

In 2010, Wang et al. utilized a cationic gold complex to activate amidoalkynyl indoles (Scheme 285).817 The amide nucleophile adds across the indole double bond, then the alkyne inserts into the Au−C bond, and the fused polycyclic 2,3-dihydro-indole product is liberated by hydrodeauration. This transformation was also employed to synthesize the akuammiline alkaloid minfiensine.

The most commonly encountered reaction cascade containing a nucleophilic substitution step is the hydroamination of alkynes followed by the hydrolysis of the resulting enamines or imines with formation of ketones. The overall process is synthetically equivalent to the often harder to control direct hydration of alkynes. There are few recent examples for this established transformation. In 2002, Yamamoto et al. disclosed a palladium-catalyzed hydroamination/hydrolysis cascade that allows converting internal alkynes to ketones in near quantitative yield (Scheme 286a). 171 As the amine component, 2-aminophenol is employed. A chelating coordination of the phenolic OHfunction is essential in the hydroamination process. This reaction concept was extended to the intermolecular hydroamination/C−C bond cleavage of diynes to yield imines and 1,3-benoxazoles (Scheme 286b).818 In 2011, the Urabe group reported an efficient synthesis of butyrolactones via Rh-catalyzed intramolecular debenzylative hydroamination of molecules bearing both a benzylamino and a chloroacetylene moiety (Scheme 287).819 It was suggested that the rhodium catalyst promotes the intramolecular aminometalation to give the benzylammonium salt intermediate, which is attacked by water to cleave the benzylic C−N bond. Hydrolysis of chlorovinyl rhodium intermediate affords the lactam. The reaction proceeds best with chloroalkynes; other haloacetylenes tend to decompose under the reaction conditions. 6.2.2. Hydroamination Followed by Nucleophilic Substitution. The hydroamidation of 2-alkynyl-aminobenzenes bearing a hydroxymethyl group leads to indoles, which can be further derivatized in situ by nucleophilic substitution with amines and hydrolysis of the amide group (Scheme 288).820

by the alkene resulting in 6-endo-dig ring closure, thereby generating a positive charge that induces the nucleophilic attack by the amide nitrogen with 5-endo-trig cyclization to generate an alkenyl−Au intermediate. Subsequent proton-initiated demetalation releases the gold catalyst and liberates the fused pyrrolidine product. The reaction was also shown to work with 1,5-enynes bearing oxygen-based nucleophiles.

been used in the total synthesis of (−)-rhazinilam and the first asymmetric total synthesis of (−)-rhazinicine. 6.2.3. Hydroamination Followed by Dehydration. The hydroamination or -amidation of propargyl alcohol derivatives leads to the formation of hydroxyl enamines or enamides, respectively, which easily undergo dehydration to form the conjugated 1,3-dienes or heterocycles (Scheme 292). This reactivity opens opportunities for several follow-up steps as detailed below. 6.2.3.1. Hydroamidation Followed by Dehydration. In the presence of 2 mol % CuCl2, γ-N-Boc- or N-tosyl-4-amino-1-yn3-ols undergo intramolecular hydroamidation followed by dehydration to form pyrroles (Scheme 293).825,826 Ag and Pd complexes were also reported to be efficient catalysts for this elegant pyrrole synthesis.827,828 In 2013, Sahoo and co-workers reported a simple protocol for the formation of E-allyl-gem-dipyrazoles via an α-attack of pyrazole on the transiently formed allene pyrazole (Scheme 294).829 6.2.3.2. Hydroamination Followed by Dehydration and Condensation. Bandini et al. reported an efficient synthesis of tricyclic 6H-azepino[1,2-α]indoles from N-3-oxoalkyl-3-(2aminophenyl)prop-2-yn-1-ols via a cascade hydroamination/ dehydration/condensation sequence mediated by a silver/gold system (Scheme 295).830 Control experiments suggest that a cationic gold species inserts into the electron-rich C−C double bond to give a nucleophilic vinyl-Au intermediate, which undergoes an intramolecular condensation reaction with the ketone closing the seven-membered ring. 6.2.3.3. Hydroamidation Followed by Double Dehydration. In 2012, Chan et al. reported an efficient synthesis of 2alkynylindole derivatives via a silver-catalyzed hydroamidation/ isomerization sequence. A 2-ethylideneindolin-3-ol was confirmed to be the key intermediate (Scheme 296).831 6.2.4. Hydroamination Followed by Hydrogenation. Hydroamination/reduction cascade processes are widely applicable to the synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines. For instance, a chiral gold complex together with a Brønsted acid can be used as catalysts for the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched secondary amines,832 and enantioselective intramolecular hydroamination/transfer hydrogenation processes were used to access tetrahydroquinolines with excellent ee values (Scheme 297).833 In other protocols, molecular hydrogen834 or inexpensive zinc835 were used as the reducing agent.836 6.2.5. Hydroamination Followed by Oxidation. In 2013, Ye and co-workers reported an oxidative cyclization of homopropargyl amides in the presence of a cationic gold catalyst and m-CPBA as the oxidant (Scheme 298).837 The reaction is believed to involve a 5-endo-dig amination yielding a vinyl-Au intermediate, which is transformed into an iminium species by protonolysis. Oxidation of the iminium intermediate yields the γ-lactam product. Notably, the reaction proceeds with

Scheme 286. Pd-Catalyzed Synthesis of Ketones by Intermolecular Hydroamination/Hydrolysis Reaction
The protocol provides an efficient and simple approach to the synthesis of γ,δ-alkynyl-β-amino acid derivatives in moderate to good yields. Unfortunately, the scope of the method is still limited to combinations of secondary aliphatic amines, terminal aromatic alkynes, and activated alkynes. The reaction proceeds via an intermolecular hydroamination of the propiolate with the amine to give an enamine, which is attacked by the terminal alkyne. A similar reaction sequence can also be performed using 2 equiv of terminal alkyne rather than two different ones. In 2013, an effective synthesis of tetrasubstituted propargylic amines was reported, which proceeds via intermolecular hydroamination of terminal alkynes followed by nucleophilic addition, using a second equivalent of the terminal alkyne as the nucleophile (Scheme 301).842 Besides copper catalysts, zinc complexes with bidentate Nligands also mediate this cascade hydroamination/alkynylation process.843 The propargylic tertiary amine products are not accessible from ketones in a way analogous to that propargylic secondary amines are easily obtained via couplings of aldehydes with amines and alkynes.844−847 This underlines the synthetic utility of the outlined process. 6.2.6.1.2. Amino- or Amidoalkynes and Nucleophiles. The combination of an intramolecular hydroamination with the addition of external nucleophiles is an efficient strategy to access cyclic amines. In 2009, Hammond and Xu reported a CuBr-catalyzed sequence to furnish alkynylated N-heterocycles in excellent yields using microwave irradiation (Scheme 302).848 This intramolecular hydroamination/nucleophilic addition cascade was extended to various nucleophiles such as TMSCN, TMSCF3, and phosphinates to give α-CN-, α-CF3-, and αPO(OR)2-substituted N-heterocycles with ring sizes of 5−7 (Scheme 302).849−853

conservation of the stereochemistry when using chiral propargylic amines. This synthetic strategy also extends to the synthesis of γ-lactones from homopropargyl alcohols.838 6.2.6. Hydroamination Followed by Nucleophilic Addition. The hydroamination of alkynes with amines would lead to the formation of enamines and imines, which can act as the electrophilic precursors for a second addition reaction (Scheme 299, paths a and b). Usually, two of the three functionalities involved in the process originate from one substrate. This kind of cascade hydroamination/nucleophilic addition process has been employed to synthesize functionalized five- to seven-membered N-heterocycles. There are only a few examples in which the three functionalities all result from different molecules, and linear products are formed (Scheme 299, path c). 6.2.6.1. Hydroamination Followed by Intermolecular Nucleophilic Addition. 6.2.6.1.1. Activated Alkynes, Terminal Alkynes, and Amines.

finally hydroarylation to form the products. This reaction was successfully performed on a 5 g scale (Scheme 303).854 A hydroamination/nucleophilic addition/hydroarylation cascade was also used in the synthesis of dihydroquinoline from an aniline and 2 equiv of the same terminal alkyne or one terminal and one internal alkyne (Scheme 304).855,856 In the latter case, the internal alkyne undergoes intermolecular hydroamination, and the terminal alkyne adds to the enamine intermediate. A hydroarylation step completes the reaction cascade. Related syntheses of dihydroquinolines from aniline derivatives and terminal alkynes are also promoted by AgBF4/HBF4857 or zincammonium salts as catalysts.858 This reaction concept was extended to less nucleophilic amides by Liu et al. (Scheme 305).859 Thus, bicyclic lactams, that is, pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolin-1(2H)-ones, were synthesized via a hydroamidation/nucleophilic addition/hydroarylation sequence in the presence of a AuBr3/AgSbF6 catalyst within 4 h in toluene at 120 °C. Unfortunately, only phenylacetylene derivatives could be used as the terminal alkyne component. Similar intramolecular hydroamination/nucleophilic addition sequences were also used for internal alkynes. An efficient and regioselective PtII-catalyzed cascade synthesis of multipsubstituted indolines and tetrahydroquinolines was reported involving a reaction pathway via intramolecular hydroamination

6.2.6.2. Hydroamination Followed by Intramolecular Nucleophilic Addition. Cyclic structures can also be accessed by intermolecular hydroaminations combined with intramolecular nucleophilic addition sequences. In 2010, the Patil group reported a gold-catalyzed cascade process involving either double hydroamination or hydroamination/hydroarylation sequences to yield N-containing heterocycles in good to excellent yields (Scheme 307).784,861 It was proposed that goldcatalyzed Markovnikov hydroamination addition leads to an enamine intermediate, which is attacked by a tethered nitrogenor carbon-nucleophile. This elegant reaction is presently limited to terminal alkynes. Intramolecular hydroamidations combined with further intramolecular steps result in the formation of bi- or polycyclic molecules. Dixon described a highly enantioselective cascade consisting of a AuI-catalyzed intramolecular 5-exo-dig hydroamidation followed by a phosphoric acid-promoted enantioselective hydroarylation process that gives access to complex sulfonamide scaffolds (Scheme 308).862−865 Another process that combines a hydroamination with a hydroarylation was reported in 2011 by Liu et al. In the presence of a cationic AuI catalyst, pyrrole- or indolesubstituted anilines were coupled with alkynes to give pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines in moderate to excellent yields (Scheme 309).866 Terminal and internal alkynes are both suitable substrates for this reaction. Related processes have also been reported starting with a hydroalkoxylation or acyloxylation followed by hemiaminal formation catalyzed by platinum or gold systems.867−870 On the basis of this strategy, Liu and Patil have respectively developed various efficient syntheses of fused N-containing heterocycles.871−878

Propargyl alcohol derivatives bearing a nucleophile in an appropriate position can be transformed to cyclic α,βunsaturated carbene complexes in the presence of electrophilic transition metal catalyst.879−882 In the presence of suitable nucleophiles, these carbene intermediates can be further converted into vicinal bis-heterocyclic compounds.

This concept was recently extended to the synthesis of various spiro-hemiaminals and spiro ketals (Scheme 316).894 In 2007, Porco and co-workers reported the silver-catalyzed cycloisomerization/[3+2] dipolar cycloaddition cascade of N-2alkynylbenzylidene-glycinates to afford the pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines-3-carboxylates in moderate to good yields (Scheme 317).895 In the first step of the reaction sequence, an azomethine ylide intermediate is generated by addition of the imine to the alkyne, which then undergoes a dipolar [3+2] cycloaddition reaction with electron-withdrawing alkynes. 6.2.11. Hydroamination Followed by Pictet−Spengler Reaction. In 2012, Yadav et al. reported a domino hydroamination/Pictet−Spengler reaction of 2-(4-tosylaminobut-1ynyl)aniline with aldehydes using a cationic gold complex as the catalyst to produce 1-aryl-N-tosyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrido[4,3b]indole derivatives in good yields (Scheme 318).896 It was suggested that an intramolecular hydroamination reaction leads to an isotryptamine intermediate, which undergoes condensation with the aldehyde to generate the N-sulfonyliminium species. Finally, a gold-mediated nucleophilic addition of the indole moiety to the C−N double bond produces the pyridoindole derivative. 6.2.12. Hydroamination Followed by Ring Contraction. In another reaction sequence described by Patil et al., a hydroamination is preceded by condensation of prop-2ynamines with 2-aminobenzaldehydes to the corresponding alkynylimines. PPh3AuOTf catalyzes their cyclization by intramolecular addition of the aniline-N−H to the C−C triple bond to give 1,4-benzodiazepines, which undergo goldcatalyzed ring contraction to the 3-aminoquinoline derivatives (Scheme 319).897 6.2.13. Addition of Imines to Alkynes Followed by Nucleophilic Capture. In the addition of HX-type nucleophiles to imines, the reactivity of the intermediates is analogous to that of X−CRR′−N−H compounds, which can be expected to be capable of undergoing hydroamination reactions. This reaction type has found many applications in synthesis. In 2005, Asao and co-workers reported the silvercatalyzed coupling between 1-(2-ethynylphenyl)methanimines and carbon nucleophiles to generate 1,2-dihydroisoquinolines (Scheme 320).898,899 Following this pioneering discovery, silver, copper, gold, indium, iron, nickel, and even catalystfree systems were developed for this type of transformation. In the absence of a metal catalyst, HCCl3 used in 5-fold excess is also suitable as a C−H nucleophile to produce 1,2dihydroisoquinolines.900 However, the substrates are limited to terminal alkynes. Later, a PdCl2(PPh3)2/dppe catalyst was developed that tolerates a broad range of substrates and gives the heterocycles in good to excellent yields.901 Other nucleophiles, such as TMSCF3,902,903 diethylphosphite,904,905

pyrrolidine synthesis via a hydroamination/allylic alkylation cascade (Scheme 312).885 A gold-catalyzed intramolecular hydroamination gives the N-allylic enamine intermediate, which undergoes allylic alkylation under the cooperative catalysis of a Pd-complex and a Brønsted acid. 6.2.9. Hydroamination Followed by C−H Activation. In 2009, Verma and Larock reported a reaction cascade consisting of an intermolecular hydroamination and a concomitant cyclization with C−H activation to construct indolo- or pyrrolo[2,1-α]isoquinolines from 1-halo-2-ethynylbenzenes and indoles or pyrroles (Scheme 313).886 The reaction is catalyzed by a Cu-complex bearing a 1hydroxymethylbenzotriazole ligand. Similar cascade processes initiated by hydroamination or -amidation steps followed by C−H activation have been widely used to construct various heterocycles.887−889 A cascade consisting of a hydroamination and an intermolecular C−H activation was utilized in an efficient synthesis of tricyclic pyrrolidine derivatives from indoline and 2 equiv of a terminal alkyne in the presence of a cationic ruthenium catalyst (Scheme 314).890−892 The mechanism is believed to involve the formation of a ruthenium acetylide from a ruthenium hydride and 2 equiv of the alkyne. An intermolecular hydroamination reaction furnishes a ruthenium vinyl intermediate, which undergoes ortho C−H activation, sequent alkyne insertion, and migratory insertion of the C−C double bond with migration of the ruthenium. The resulting alkyl-ruthenium intermediate possesses no β-hydrogens, which would give rise to elimination, allowing its σ-bond metathesis with the terminal alkyne with liberation of the product and regeneration of the catalyst. 6.2.10. Hydroamination Followed by Cycloaddition. The combination of an intramolecular hydroamidation with a hetero-Diels−Alder reaction allows the synthesis of the bicyclic hemiaminals. Thus, pyrano[2,3-b]pyrroles were synthesized by Xu et al. from N-alkynyl-N-tosyl-amines and 2-oxopent-3enolates via a gold-catalyzed hydroamidation followed by the Ga(OTf)3-catalyzed hetero-Diels−Alder reaction of the resulting 2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrols (Scheme 315).893

2H-Isoindolo-1-ylphosphonates can be accessed via this cascade using a bimetallic catalyst system consisting of FeCl3 and PdCl2 from 2-alkynylbenzaldehyde, aniline, and phosphites.916 A similar strategy for the synthesis of substituted pyrazolo[5,1-a]isoquinolines was developed by Peng et al. They used N-allyl-ynamide as the nucleophile to activate 2alkynylbenzaldehyde tosylhydrazone for the addition across the alkyne C−C triple bond, leading to isoquinoline skeletons. The reaction proceeded under cocatalysis of silver triflate and palladium acetate.917 The synthesis of isoquinolines on the basis of this strategy was reported by a number of research groups, with many contributions by the group of Wu.918−927 In 2009, Wu et al. reported a silver-mediated [3+2]cyclization/hydroamination process that generates 1,2-dihydroisoquinolines in good to excellent yields from various terminal alkynes and N′-(2-alkynylbenzylidene)hydrazide (Scheme 321, path a).918,919 A complementary process for the synthesis of pyrazolo[5,1-a]isoquinolines makes use of either carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes or ketones or their O-silyl enolates and proceeds in the presence of a silver catalyst under redox-neutral conditions (Scheme 321, path c).920,921 Instead of using the carbonyl compound directly, the reagents can be generated in situ from secondary/tertiary amines or alcohols in the presence of air as the oxidant and a catalyst based on silver, copper, or palladium (Scheme 321, paths b and h).922−924 Later, electron-rich alkynes, such as Nallyl ynamides (Scheme 321, path d), and electron-poor alkynes, such as dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylates (Scheme 321, path g), were shown to react with N′-(2alkynylbenzylidene)hydrazides to furnish the corresponding annulation products.917,925 Fused spirooxindoles (Scheme 321, path e) and 1-(indol-3-yl)-2-aminoisoquinolinium triflates (Scheme 321, path f), respectively, can be synthesized in good to excellent yields by cyclization of N′-(2alkynylbenzylidene)hydrazide with methylene-indolinones and indoles. 926,927 Furthermore, N′-(2-alkynylbenzylidene)-

In 2009, Xu et al. reported a related copper(I)-catalyzed cascade reaction between dimethyl 2-prop-2-ynylmalonates and N-tosyl imines (Scheme 323).937 The N−H equivalent is generated by addition of the C−H acidic to the imine moiety and adds across the terminal alkyne in 5-exo-dig cyclization to afford 2methylenepyrrolidines. Asymmetric reaction variants, in which the nucleophilic addition to Boc- or Cbz-imines is mediated by chiral organocatalysts, allow the synthesis of spiro[pyrrolidin-3,2′oxindole],938 piperidines,939 and trisubstituted pyrrolidines940 in high yields and ee values.

Moreover, the scaffold of biological active 7,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazines (Scheme 326) was obtained in a single step in reasonable yields from N-alkynylmethylindoles or pyrroles bearing formyl groups in 2-position.951 In 2012, Wu et al. reported a silver-catalyzed nucleophilic addition/rearrangement/hydroamination cascade for the synthesis of isoquinolines (Scheme 327).952 It is believed to be initiated by the addition of a 2-isocyanoacetate to a 2alkynylbenzaldehyde under basic conditions to form a dihydrooxazole intermediate, which rearranges to an enamide intermediate. The latter undergoes a silver-catalyzed 6-exo-dig hydroamidation, and the resulting enamide extrudes carbon monoxide to form the isoquinoline product. 6.3.2. Hydroamination with N-Nucleophiles Generated by Nucleophilic Addition to Isoquinolines. The addition of nucleophiles to isoquinolines also gives rise to intermediates that are capable of undergoing hydroamination reactions. In 2008, Yadav et al. reported a reaction cascade that allows the coupling of isoquinolines first with C−H or P−H nucleophiles and then with acetylene dicarboxylic acid esters to form substituted 1,2-dihydroquinolines in one step (Scheme 328).953 If terminal alkynes are employed as C−H nucleophiles, a gold catalyst is required, whereas the reaction proceeds without any catalyst for indoles.954,955 6.3.3. Hydroamination with N-Nucleophiles Generated by Nucleophilic Addition to Nitriles. A bimetallic Au/ Zn catalyst system enables reaction cascades initiated with the addition of nitrogen nucleophiles to nitriles followed by an intramolecular hydroamination process to give 2-aminopyrroles (Scheme 329).956 The zinc salt activates the nitriles and promotes the addition of anilines or aliphatic amines to the C− N triple bonds, and the gold catalyst mediates the subsequent hydroamination step. Unfortunately, N-substituted products are often obtained as a mixture with the nonsubstituted derivatives. The addition of alcohols to nitriles followed by intramolecular hydroamination of alkynes with the resulting imidates was found to be catalyzed by a hydroplatinum complex (Scheme 330). This way, various 3-substituted 1alkyoxyisoquinolines and isoquin-1(2H)-ones were synthesized from alkynylbenzonitrile in moderate yields (Scheme 330).957

initiated by a Hoffmann rearrangement, followed by nucleophilic addition of alcohols, amines, or certain Wittig reagents to generate the corresponding N−H nucleophiles, which undergo intramolecular hydroamidation with formation of the cyclic products (Scheme 331).958,959 6.3.5. Hydroamination with N-Nucleophiles Generated by Nucleophilic Addition to Aziridines. The addition of H−X nucleophiles to N-tosyl aziridines or azetidines also results in nitrogen nucleophiles that can undergo hydroamidation reactions. Under basic conditions, the OH-group of propargylic alcohols reacts with these substrates under ring opening, and the N−H group thus generated adds to the alkyne moiety in the presence of 2 mol % of Ag(cod)2PF6 as catalyst (Scheme 332).960 A broad range of six- to eight-membered N,O-unsaturated heterocycles were obtained in high yields. The nature of the alkynes determines the regioselectivity of the hydroamidation step. Terminal propargyl alcohols mostly undergo endo-dig cyclization, whereas exo-dig cyclization predominates for internal alkynes. In 2010, Shi et al. reported a gold-catalyzed cyclization of 2(2-ethynylphenyl)aziridines with electron-rich arenes to
produce 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines in high yields and stereoselectivities (Scheme 333).961 According to the proposed mechanism, the cationic gold catalyst promotes the ring opening of the aziridines by a nucleophilic attack of the arenes to generate a 2-aryl-2-(ethynyl)ethaneamine intermediate, which undergoes 6-exo-dig hydroamidation followed by isomerization to give the dihydroquinoline product.962 The reaction is so far limited to electron-rich arenes, which have to be used in large excess to facilitate the initiating C−H activating step. 6.3.6. Hydroamination of Allenes with N-Nucleophiles Generated by Nucleophilic Addition to Alkynyl Aziridines. Alkynyl-substituted N-tosyl aziridines bearing aryl groups undergo complex rearrangements in the presence of silver or gold catalysts.

obtained using the same method when starting from sulfonamide and malonate derivatives. A similar strategy can be used for the synthesis of 1,2,3,4tetrahydro-β-carbolines (pyridoindoles) from a 2-alkynylaminobenzene, an aldehyde, and a secondary amine. If the amine contains appropriate functionalities, such as R3 = CH2OH or CO2R, the A3-coupling/hydroamination product could further be transformed into a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-carboline derivative under basic or acidic conditions (Scheme 341).1005 Four-component couplings/cyclizations utilizing 2-ethynylbenzaldehyde, paraformaldehyde, a secondary amine, and t BuNH 2 afford 3-(aminomethyl)isoquinolines (Scheme 342).1006 It was suggested that following A3-coupling, t BuNH2 reacts with the 2-ethynylbenzaldehyde to form the imine, which acts as the nucleophile to attack the A3-coupling intermediate. Similar copper-catalyzed four-component couplings of 2alkynylbenzaldehydes, paraformaldehyde, and secondary amines followed by treatment with a diamine, yielding tricyclic isoquinoline derivatives, were described by the group of Ohno and Fujii (Scheme 343).1007 The imine moiety formed in situ from the diamine and A3-coupling intermediate is attacked intramolecularly by the primary amino group, which triggers the hydroamination cascade. In certain cases, the products obtained by A3-coupling/ hydroamination undergo further C−C bond-forming cyclization under the reaction conditions. Thus, Ohno and co-workers described a reaction sequence in which indole-fused tetracyclic 1,4-diazepine derivatives are directly obtained from 2ethynylanilines, secondary amines, and aldehydes by coppercatalyzed A3-coupling followed by intramolecular hydroamination and N-arylation (Scheme 344).1008 A reaction sequence involving gold-catalyzed A3-coupling of aliphatic aldehydes or ketones, alkynes, and acylhydrazines, followed by an intramolecular hydroamidation, leads to polysubstituted dihydropyrazoles (Scheme 345).1009 When starting from 1,2-dialkynylbenzene substrates, the dihydropyrazoles cyclize further in a hydroarylation process, leading to fused tricyclic heterocycles. 6.4.3. Conjugate Addition of Terminal Alkynes Followed by Hydroamidation. 2,4-Disubstituted pyrroles are accessible by Pd-catalyzed conjugate addition of a terminal alkyne to an N-Boc-aminomethylpropiolate, followed by intermolecular hydroamidation and double-bond migration (Scheme 346).1010 The reaction tolerates moisture and can be performed at ambient temperature. Both aromatic and aliphatic terminal alkynes are transformed to the corresponding pyrroles in good to excellent yields.

6.4.1. Sonogashira Coupling Followed by Hydroamination. Table 2 presents some illustrative examples for one-pot Sonogashira coupling/hydroamination sequences. Copper and palladium are the most commonly used catalysts. Various five- or six-membered rings are conveniently accessible by this strategy. 6.4.2. A3 (Amine-Alkyne-Aldehyde)-Coupling Followed by Hydroamination. The coupling reaction between aldehydes, alkynes, and amines, commonly called A3-coupling, is a convenient approach to propargylamines and other functionalized products.846,987 In 2010, Gevorgyan et al. reported a copper-catalyzed A3-coupling/hydroamination cascade to afford fused imidazo-heterocycles (Scheme 337).13 After this seminal work, a range of other catalysts such as copper nanoparticles,988 CuSO4/TsOH,989 CuSO4/glucose,990 Cu/Mn bimetallic system,991 CuI/NaHSO4·SiO2,992 and InBr3993 were shown to catalyze this reaction sequence. An extension of such aldehyde-amine-alkyne coupling/ hydroamination cascades to heteroaryl aldehydes using a gold catalyst was presented by Liu and co-workers in 2007. This process provides efficient and atom-economical access to substituted indolizin-1-amines (Scheme 338).994,995 Later, the expensive gold catalyst was replaced by cheaper transition metals such as AgBF4,996 CuI,997 and Fe(acac)3.998 When 2-aminobenzaldehydes, secondary amines, and terminal alkynes were used for the copper-catalyzed A3-coupling, the in situ formed propargylamine intermediate can undergo selective cyclization to afford 3-aminoindolines999 or 2substituted quinolines (Scheme 339).1000 A mechanistic study revealed that the oxidation state of copper and the substitution pattern of the amine determine the selectivity of the cyclization reaction.1001 Ohno and Fujii started from Ts-ethynylaniline to construct 2-(aminomethyl)-indoles based on the A3-coupling/hydroamidation strategy (Scheme 340).1002 CuBr also catalyzes the A3-coupling/hydroamination of numerous other cyclic or acyclic secondary amines and aldehydes (paraformaldehyde, aliphatic or aromatic aldehydes).1003,1004 Benzo[e][1,2]thiazine and indene motifs are BZ

convenient entry to the pyrrole skeleton. At this stage, only aromatic alkynes can be converted. 6.4.7. Claisen Rearrangement Followed by Hydroamidation. Polysubstituted pyrroles can also be synthesized by a one-pot reaction sequence that consists of a catalytic Claisen rearrangement, followed by an amine condensation and a hydroamination step. In the presence of a silver/gold catalyst, pentasubstituted pyrroles are obtained. Silver catalyzes the propargyl-Claisen rearrangement, and gold promotes the 5-exodig intramolecular hydroamination reaction (Scheme 351, left).1016,1017 With another set of conditions, similar propargyl vinyl ethers can also be transformed into 1,2-dihydropyridines. In this transformation, gold catalyzes the propargyl-Claisen rearrangement, and a Brønsted acid promotes the 6-endo-dig cyclization. Similar α-allenyl-β-enaminone intermediates can be obtained via gold-catalyzed Claisen rearrangement of propargyl vinyl ethers and condensation with amines. They subsequently undergo intramolecular 5-exo-dig hydroamidation to the corresponding pyrrole products (Scheme 351, right).1018,1019 In 2008, a RhI-catalyzed amino-Claisen rearrangement/ intramolecular hydroamination cascade was presented, which provides a high-yielding synthetic entry to 2,3-disubstituted indoles (Scheme 352).1020 The active catalyst [Rh(CO)(Ph3P)2]OCH(CF3)2 is generated in situ from RhH(CO)(Ph3P)3 and TFIP. It promotes the rearrangement of phenyl propargyl amines into allenylanilines that easily undergo intramolecular hydroamination with selective formation of the corresponding indole rings. 6.4.8. Allene Formation Followed by Hydroamination. In 2013, Kang et al. utilized a copper-mediated condensation of terminal alkynes with aldehydes to generate aminosubstituted allenes, which under the forcing reaction conditions undergo intramolecular hydroamination with formation of 3,4-dihydropyrroles (Scheme 353).1021 In analogous reaction cascades, amino-substituted allenes suitable for intramolecular hydroamination reactions were generated in situ by condensation of N-tosylhydrazones bearing amino groups with terminal alkynes1022,1023 or of aminosubstituted terminal alkynes with alkyl or aryl N-tosylhydrazones.1024 Zhou et al. employed both strategies for the synthesis of 2-substituted indoles in the presence of CuBr (Scheme 354).1023,1024

6.4.4. Hydroacylation Followed by Hydroamidation. 2,3-Dihydro-1-N-tosylquinolin-4(1H)-one derivatives (azaisoflavanones) have efficiently been synthesized via gold-catalyzed annulation of 2-tosylaminobenzaldehyde and arylalkynes (Scheme 347).1011 The authors proposed that the hydroacylation proceeds via an amino group-assisted catalytic C−H activation of the aldehyde followed by alkyne insertion to form an α,β-unsaturated ketone.1012 This intermediate then undergoes intramolecular hydroamidation to the azaisoflavanone product. 6.4.5. Addition of Terminal Alkynes to Carbonyl Groups Followed by Intramolecular Hydroamination. Aminoalkynes suitable for intramolecular hydroamination reactions can also be generated in situ by adding terminal alkynes to aminoaryl-substituted carbonyl compounds. Thus, 1(2-aminophenyl)alkanones react with various terminal alkynes in the presence of AgOTf to give 2,4-disubstituted quinolines in good to high yield (Scheme 348).1013 Such nucleophilic addition/hydroamination/dehydration reactions are also mediated by NHC−Au complexes.855 A catalyst system consisting of a AuI catalyst, p-anisidine, and a chiral Brønsted acid was used to synthesize quinolines from 2aminobenzaldehydes and terminal alkynes via a nucleophilic addition/hydroamination/dehydration process (Scheme 349).1014 The quinolines were in situ hydrogenated with Hantsch ester to the corresponding tetrahydroquinolines in high ee. 6.4.6. Oxidative C−C Coupling Followed by Hydroamination. In 2013, the Lei group presented a silver-mediated oxidative C−C coupling between terminal alkynes and βenamino esters followed by an intramolecular hydroaminationtype step (Scheme 350).1015 This sequence provides a

mol %) and 10 mol % CuI, the reaction sequence works well with anilines and amides, resulting in good yields of the corresponding N-aryl- or N-acyl indoles. Beside Pd and Cu, Ni(cod)2/dpppf was recently shown to be another effective system for this type of transformation (Scheme 358).1031 Pd also catalyzes this type of transformation with hydrazines in place of the amines. C−N coupling between 2alkynylhaloarenes and hydrazines followed by hydroamination leads to 1-aminoindole products in good to excellent yields under mild conditions (Scheme 359).1032 6.5.2. C−S Coupling Followed by Hydroamination. In 2010, Chen et al. found that the CuI/DMEDA catalytic system could also be used in the C−S coupling/hydroamination sequence to synthesize fused nitrogen/sulfur heterocycles (Scheme 360).1033 Under the basic conditions (TBAF), dehydrohalogenation of the 1,1-dibromoalkene starting materials yields 1-bromoalkynes, which then undergo C−S coupling and hydroamination to give the imidazol[2,1-b]-thiazole products. Recently, another C(sp)−S coupling followed by 5endo-dig cyclization was used to construct [1,3]thiazolo[3,2a]benzimidazoles from terminal alkynes and 1H-benzimidazole2-thiol or dihydropyrimidine-2-thione.1034 Both reactions require a stoichiometric amount of copper salt as oxidant. 6.5.3. Allylic or Propargylic Amination Followed by Hydroamidation. Intermediates able to undergo hydroamidation reactions are also obtained by allylic amination of alkynyl-substituted allylic alkoxy-derivatives. Liang et al. used a gold catalyst for a tandem allylic amidation/hydroamidation starting with tosyl amide that leads directly to polysubstituted (fused) pyrroles (Scheme 361).1035 The process starts directly from the allylic alcohols, but requires 15 equiv of TsNH2. The synthesis of substituted pyrroles via Pd-catalyzed amination of alkynyl-substituted allylic acetates requires 4 equiv of an aromatic or aliphatic amine (Scheme 362).1036 In 2012, Tu et al. reported a mechanistically related pyrrole synthesis from alkynyl-substituted allyl chloroacetates and anilines or aliphatic amines (Scheme 363).1037 An allylic amination furnishes the alkynyl amine, which undergoes intramolecular 5-exo-dig hydroamination with formation of a tetrahydropyrrole intermediate. Both double bonds migrate into the ring, so that aromatic pyrroles are finally obtained in reasonable yields. Various N-heterocycles such as 9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole, 3Hpyrrolo[1,2-a]indole, and 1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole derivatives were shown to be accessible by silver-catalyzed propargylic amination/hydroarylation or propargylic arylation/hydroamination cascades (Scheme 364).1038 A copper-catalyzed propargylic amination/hydroamination/oxidative aromatization cascade was used to synthesize 2,4-disubstituted or 2,4,6trisubstituted pyrimidines from propargyl alcohols and amidines in moderate to good yields (Scheme 364).1039 6.5.4.

In 2007, Fustero and co-worker reported a metathesis/ hydroamidation cascade, which allows the synthesis of 2,5substituted pyrrolidines or piperidines (Scheme 356).1026,1027 The reaction is mediated by a Grubbs catalyst of the second generation in combination with BF3·OEt2. Microwave irradiation significantly accelerates this cascade process. A related metathesis/intramolecular hydroamidation cascade catalyzed by a Ru/Au system has been used to access dihydroquinoline derivatives.777 6.5. C−Heteroatom Bond Formation Followed by Hydroamination or Hydroamidation
6.5.1. Buchwald−Hartwig-Type C−N Coupling Followed by Hydroamidation. Cu-catalyzed couplings of halogen-substituted enynes with amines have been used to generate enaminoalkyne intermediates, which directly undergo intramolecular hydroamidation. Thus, in 2006, Buchwald et al. reported CuI/DMEDA-catalyzed reactions of (1Z)-1-halobut1-en-3-ynes with either tert-butyl carbamate or bis(tertbutyloxycarbonyl)hydrazine that proceed via amination of the vinyl halide followed by 5-endo- or 5-exo-dig cyclization, respectively, to afford pyrrole or pyrazole derivatives (Scheme 357).1028 When a similar reaction is applied to 2-alkynylhaloarenes, indole products are obtained. Ackermann and co-workers reported in 2009 that a 5 mol % Pd(OAc)2/N-heterocyclic carbene system catalyzes the formation of indoles with steric demanding substituents, for instance, bulky alkyl amines, in good to excellent yields in toluene at 105−120 °C.1029 The scope includes less nucleophilic anilines as well as alkyl amines. Later, the same group succeeded in replacing the expensive palladium catalyst with the cheap CuI without any ligand.1030 In the presence of N,N′-dimethylethylenediamine (DMEDA) (30

In 2008, Wang et al. reported a copper-catalyzed cyclization of (2-alkynylphenyl)diazoacetate with incorporation of an aniline derivative (Scheme 366).1047 According to the proposed mechanism, the diazo function releases nitrogen with formation of a carbenoid intermediate that inserts into the N− H bond of the aniline. Interestingly, the hydroamination selectivity changes from 6-endo-dig to 5-exo-dig when employing the amine in excess. This way, the corresponding isoindoles (following double bond migration) or dihydroisoquinolines are obtained in good to excellent yields. 6.5.6.

7.1. State-of-the-Art
Particular progress has been achieved in anti-Markovnikovselective hydroamidations of alkynes affording synthetically meaningful enamides, in which the regio- and stereoselectivity can efficiently be controlled by the catalyst system. State-of-theart systems for Z-selective hydroamidations are (cod)Ru(met)2/(dcypb) catalysts with the Lewis acidic ytterbium triflate cocatalyst, which provide Z-enamides in up to 99% yield and with Z/E ratios of up to 40:1.190 The E-configured products can be obtained using (cod)Ru(met)2/DMAP in up to 99% yield and 30:1 selectivity.191 Another remarkable development is the greatly enhanced regioselectivity in hydroaminations of internal alkynes. Greater than 20:1 ratios in favor of the 1-aryl enamines were achieved in the hydroamination of aryl alkyl alkynes with aliphatic secondary amines using a cationic AuI complex with a bulky P,N-ligand.186 In hydroaminations of alkenes, early transition metals are still state-of-the-art, but especially the (DPEphos)Rh(cod)BF4 systems are approaching the selectivities and reactivities of early transition metals. The example of hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes with secondary amines illustrates this, because the sole Markovnikov isomer can be obtained in up to 93% yield with only 1 mol % catalyst.204 As compared to other catalysts, late transition metals show the best activity in alkene hydroamidations. Among them, both [Ir(coe)2Cl]2 and cationic AuI are able to promote the intermolecular hydroamidation of nonactivated alkenes in good yields but require the use of more than 10 equiv of alkene.207 [PtCl2(C2H4)]2 catalyzes the hydroamidation of vinyl arenes with a range of amides in up to 85% yield,172 and that of nonactivated alkenes with sulfonamides in up to 95% yield.226 The asymmetric hydroamination and -amidation of alkenes and allenes has undergone a rapid development. Asymmetric catalysts are mainly composed of Au, Rh, and Ir complexes.1050 For example, Rh(cod)2BF4 with Cy-Mop-type ligands catalyzes the asymmetric intramolecular hydroamination of alkenes in up to 92% yield and 91% enantiomeric excess. Only moderate ee values were obtained in the asymmetric intramolecular hydroamidation of alkenes catalyzed by a cationic Au complex with a chiral phosphoric acid ligand. [Ir(coe)2Cl]2/chiral phosphine and cationic AuI/chiral phosphine complexes are the best asymmetric catalysts for intermolecular hydroaminations and hydroamidations, respectively. [Rh(cod)Cl]2/ Josiphos-catalyzed intermolecular asymmetric hydroaminations of allenes with anilines gave chiral allylic amines in up to 92% yield and 90% ee. Meanwhile, dinuclear AuI/chiral phosphine complexes were shown to promote the intermolecular asymmetric hydroamidation of internal allenes in up to 99%

7. CONCLUSION AND OUTLOOK This Review demonstrates that late transition metal-catalyzed additions of N−H nucleophiles to alkenes, alkynes, and allenes have attracted tremendous attention over the past decade. During this period, hydroaminations and hydroamidations have evolved into broadly applicable methodologies that give convenient access to various product classes of considerable synthetic value. State-of-the-art reactions often proceed with high chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity, at low temperatures, and under mild conditions. The starting materials, alkynes/ alkenes and amines/amides, are readily available in great structural diversity, and the reaction concept is inherently atom-

the use of Lewis acids rather than auxiliary bases as cocatalysts shifted the reactivity-determining factor from the nucleophilicity to the acidity of the amine substrate. Another unmet challenge is the development of efficient protocols for anti-Markovnikov hydroamination reactions that allow accessing linear aliphatic amines from terminal alkenes and amines or ammonia. The key toward achieving this goal is to find a catalyst system that efficiently activates the N−H bond, promotes the insertion of a simple alkene, and is then still able to reductively eliminate the product. All of these steps are known individually, but their combination demands that the catalysts display a complex and seemingly diverging set of properties. Markovnikov-selective intermolecular hydroaminations or -amidations of alkenes, as well as the hydroamidations of alkynes, are still in their infancy. For alkyne substrates, a complementary set of Markovnikov- and anti-Markovnikovselective protocols based on ruthenium catalysts with orthogonal ligand systems has recently been developed for the addition of carboxylic acids to terminal alkynes. This raises confidence that not only the stereo- but also the regioselectivity of alkyne hydroaminations or -amidations can be controlled by ligands. This field certainly merits further attention. Internal enamides, as would result from such Markovnikovselective hydroamidations, could be hydrogenated in high yields and enantioselectivities using know catalysts to give valuable chiral nitrogen compounds. Asymmetric versions of hydroaminations or -amidations of alkenes would lead to the same product class in only one step. To date, such reactions have been described only intramolecularly or for rather special substrate combinations, however, and there is much room for improvement. Because of the abundance of chiral amino groups in biologically active molecules, the development of intermolecular asymmetric hydroaminations is a particularly worthwhile research area. The above-mentioned gold-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination of terminal alkynes with anilines is one of the few examples of a hydroamination process that proceeds with an industrially interesting catalyst loading. Many of the protocols presented in this Review still require large amounts of expensive catalysts, and there is much room for improvement. However, mechanistically related addition reactions, such as gold-catalyzed hydrations of alkynes (TON of up to 107),1051 nurture the hope that a similar efficiency might be possible also for hydroaminations and -amidations. A key element in addressing this challenge consists of the rational design of ligands specifically for hydroamination or hydroamidation reactions. For example, phosphine ligands with a rigid framework containing a Lewis-basic functional group have been shown to significantly improve the TON of hydroaminations by enhancing the anti-addition of the nucleophiles to the alkynes.1052 The use of customized ligands might lead to

yield and 92% ee. Various chiral N-containing heterocycles were constructed utilizing AuI/chiral phosphine complexes or cationic gold complexes with chiral phosphoric acid ligands. Another outstanding achievement in late transition metalcatalyzed hydroaminations is the high TON. The TON of 95 000, achieved in an intermolecular hydroamination of terminal alkynes and anilines with a gold complex, illustrates how efficient such reactions may become.217 Another rapidly developing area is that of cascade reactions. Imines, imides, enamides, and enamines are all structures with high intrinsic reactivity, and their formation can easily be combined with follow-up reaction steps leading to synthetically valuable products. There is a great diversity of catalysts, and on the basis of current knowledge, it is still hard to predict which system will be the best for a given application. However, a few rules begin to emerge: When aiming at reactions initiated by an intramolecular hydroamination or -amidation of alkynes followed by further functionalization of enamines or enamides, gold, platinum, and silver complexes, especially cationic gold(I), Pd(OAc)2, or copper(I)/base, are versatile catalysts. When the cascade process is initiated by a cross-coupling and followed by intramolecular hydroamination or -amidation, palladium and copper catalysts such as palladium(0)/phosphine complexes are commonly used. Although hundreds of such reactions have already been developed, this research area has only started to evolve, and one can expect numerous creative reaction cascades to be disclosed in the upcoming years. 7.2. Synthetic Challenges
Despite all progress achieved, a number of obstacles still need to be overcome. One such challenge is the use of ammonia as a substrate for hydroaminations. The gold-catalyzed hydroamination of alkynes/allenes with ammonia discussed in this Review is a first important step in this direction.286 The long way toward an efficient and atom-economic synthesis of amines from ammonia and alkynes is well worth pursuing. The key difficulty here is that the products of such reactions, primary amines, will always be more nucleophilic than ammonia itself. It may be possible to surmount this challenge using a concept similar to that employed for the selective addition of primary amides to terminal alkynes, even in the presence of the more nucleophilic secondary amide reaction products. In this case, CH

breakthroughs in both the efficiency and the selectivity of many N−H additions across C−C double and triple bonds. It is certainly worthwhile directing research activities toward this goal. 7.3. Mechanistic Challenges
Various mechanisms of hydroaminations have been proposed, but only very few extensive mechanistic studies have been performed to assess the validity of the mechanistic assumptions made. For the ruthenium-catalyzed hydroamidations of alkynes, the proposed mechanism was revised several times until finally a detailed mechanism was established with substantially enhanced complexity as compared to the initial draft. Just recently, the origin of the reversal of stereochemistry in these reactions could be pinpointed, so that a rational ligand design has become possible. The mechanism of intramolecular hydroaminations or -amidations of alkenes has extensively been explored. Usually, the cleavage of C−M (M = Rh, Ir, Pd, Fe, Au) bond by either protonation or aminolysis of the C−M bond was found to be the rate-determining step. In-depth spectroscopic and theoretical investigations would be welcome also for a detailed study of the late transition metalcatalyzed hydroaminations. For example, the origin of the regioselectivities (e.g., 6-endo vs 5-exo) in intramolecular hydroaminations tends not to be fully understood. The mechanisms are often rather tentative. Comparative studies of the proposed pathways should be conducted to aid the rational development of selective catalyst systems. This would be of particular interest for the desirable reversal of the hydroamination or -hydroamidation selectivity toward the Markovnikov products. Inntermolecular N−H addition reactions are mechanistically very diverse and far from being fully understood. Hartwig et al. found that the migratory insertion of alkenes into the Ir−N bond was the rate-limiting step for the specific case of an intermolecular hydroamination of alkenes with indoles. In contrast, the suggested pathway for hydroamination or -amidation via a migratory insertion of the alkyne into the M−N bond (pathway c in Scheme 8) has not yet been validated,163,164 nor is it clear which steps are likely to be limiting for a given set of catalysts. M−amide and M−amido species are easily formed under mild conditions, so that numerous potential applications might arise from a better understanding of such processes.1053
