A novel Fe-catalyzed olefin hydroamination
with diazo compounds
for accessing hydrazones has been developed. Diazo compounds are used
as radical acceptors and can be trapped by the in situ generated alkyl radical toward C–N bond formation. The reaction
conditions are mild, and the substrate scope is broad. Additionally,
this hydroamination protocol is applicable for intramolecular reactions
to construct diverse heterocycles.
