The transformation of unsaturated hydrocarbons through the action of metal complexes
continues to constitute a very important field of organometallic chemistry, particularly when …

Conspectus Vicinal diamines are important structural motifs present in various biologically
and chemically significant molecules. Direct diamination of olefins provides an effective …

Vicinal diamines, especially unsymmetrical ones, are among the most common structural
motifs in biologically active molecules, natural products and pharmaceuticals. While the …

Reported herein is a new iron‐catalyzed diastereoselective olefin diazidation reaction which
occurs at room temperature (1–5 mol% of catalysts and dr values of up to> 20: 1). This …

Abstract Selective three‐component 1, 2‐diamination of 1, 3‐dienes with concurrent
introduction of two orthogonally protected amino groups remains unknown despite its …

Functionalization of alkenes has been well investigated by chemists, thus it has been
extensively applied in organic synthesis and industries. In the past few decades, transition …

Two radical‐mediated processes of activated alkenes, namely arylphosphonylation and
arylazidation, are described. The difunctionalization of alkenes by a tandem process that …

Alkene difunctionalization, the addition of two functional groups across a double bond,
exemplifies a class of reactions with significant synthetic potential. This emerging area …

Here we report that palladium (0) complexes can coordinate in a η2 fashion to 1, 3-dienes
and significantly raise the energy of their highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) by …

The chemistry, synthetic routes and medicinal properties of vicinal diamines and
imidazolines are discussed. Synthetic routes towards chemically and pharmaceutically …
