Palladium-catalyzed hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes for the synthesis of primary amides has long been an elusive aim. Here, we report an efficient catalytic system which enables inexpensive NH4Cl to be utilized as a practical alternative to gaseous ammonia for the palladium-catalyzed alkene-hydroaminocarbonylation reaction. Through appropriate choice of the palladium precursors and ligands, either branched or linear primary amides can be obtained in good yields with good to excellent regioselectivities. Primary mechanistic studies were conducted and disclosed that electrophilic acylpalladium species were capable of capturing the NH2-moiety from ammonium salts to form amides in the presence of CO with NMP as a base.

The dependence of the α/γ-ratio of alkylation products on several factors has been determined with 1-cyano-3-aryl-1-(trimethylsiloxy)allylic anions.Increasing amounts of γ-product are found in more polar solvents, with larger alkali ions, on addition of HMPT, with smaller alkyl groups in the electrophile, and especially with p-cyanophenyl groups.In contrast, temperature and leaving groups have minor effects.On substitution of the O-silyl group by O-methyl and O-ethoxycarbonyl, α-alkylation predominates strongly.The results are compared to known allylic anions.Furthermore, the isomerisation of compounds of type C to type B is described as well as a new addition reaction of cyanoformates to aldehydes.
