We report a new set of reactions based on the unlocking of amides through simple treatment with allyl bromide, creating a common platform for accessing a diverse range of nitrogen-containing functional groups such as primary amides, sulfonamides, primary amines, N-acyl compounds (esters, thioesters, amides), and N-sulfonyl esters. The method has potential industrial applicability, as demonstrated through gram-scale syntheses in batch and in a continuous flow system.

One of the most common reactions of diazo compounds with alkenes is cyclopropanation, which occurs through metal carbene or free carbene intermediates. Alternative functionalization of alkenes with diazo compounds is limited, and a methodology for the addition of the elements of Z-CHR2 (with Z = H or heteroatom, and CHR2 originates from N2 CR2) across a carbon-carbon double bond has not been reported. Here we report a novel reaction of diazo compounds utilizing a radical-mediated addition strategy to achieve difunctionalization of diverse alkenes. Diazo compounds are transformed to carbon radicals with a photocatalyst or an iron catalyst through PCET processes. The carbon radical selectively adds to diverse alkenes, delivering new carbon radical species, and then forms products through hydroalkylation by thiol-assisted hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), or forms azidoalkylation products through an iron catalytic cycle. These two processes are highly complementary, proceed under mild reaction conditions, and show high functional group tolerance. Furthermore, both transformations are successfully performed on a gram-scale, and diverse γ-amino esters, γ-amino alcohols, and complex spirolactams are easily prepared with commercially available reagents. Mechanistic studies reveal the plausible pathways that link the two processes and explain the unique advantages of each.

Paragraph 0064; 0067; 0068, (2017/07/14)
The invention relates to a process for doubly carbonylating allyl alcohols to the corresponding diesters, wherein a linear or branched allyl alcohol is reacted with a linear or branched alkanol (alcohol) with supply of CO and in the presence of a catalytic system composed of a palladium complex and at least one organic phosphorus ligand and in the presence of a hydrogen halide selected from HCl, HBr and HI.
