C(sp3)–H dehydrogenation and C(sp2)–H alkoxy carbonylation of inactivated cyclic amines towards functionalized N-heterocycles
A novel and efficient synthesis of tetrahydropyridine-, dihydropyrrole-, and tetrahydroazepine-3-carboxylates via cascade reactions of cyclic amines with CO and alcohols is presented. To our knowledge, this should be the first example in which functionalized N-heterocycles were prepared through Pd-catalyzed C(sp3)–H dehydrogenation and C(sp2)–H carbonylation of cyclic amines.
