Abstract The 1, 2-diamine motif is present in a number of natural products with interesting
biological activity and in many important pharmaceutical agents. Chiral 1, 2-diamines are …

The nitrile or cyano (–CN) group is one of the most appreciated and effective functional
groups in organic synthesis, having a polar unsaturated C–N triple bond. Despite sufficient …

Recent years have seen the rapid development of a new field of palladium catalysis in
organic synthesis. This chemistry takes place outside the usually encountered Pd0/PdII …

Pd (II)-catalyzed intramolecular amination of sp2 and sp3 C− H bonds are developed using
a combination of CuCl2 and AgOAc as the oxidant. The reaction protocol tolerates the …

A copper-catalyzed aminoazidation of unactivated alkenes is achieved for the synthesis of
versatile unsymmetrical 1, 2-diamine derivatives. This transformation offers an effective …

Palladium catalysis has been instrumental in the development of the intramolecular
diamination of alkenes. Reagent combinations of a palladium catalyst and iodosobenzene …

A method for the synthesis of bi-and tricyclic amidines has been developed through copper-
catalyzed aerobic [3+ 2]-annulation reaction of N-alkenyl amidines. These cyclic amidines …

Diaminations are a girl's best friend: New reactions in the field of transition‐metal‐catalyzed
diamination of olefins provide a powerful tool for the elaboration of more complex molecules …

1, 2-Diamines represent a functional group in organic chemistry, which commonly is not
conceived in a direct manner, but rather through a combination of several synthetic steps.[1] …

Evidence for the protiocatalytic nature of the diacetoxylation of alkenes using PhI (OAc) 2 as
oxidant is presented. Systematic studies into the catalytic activity in the presence of proton …
