Abstract:
A PdII -catalyzed asymmetric aminohydroxylation of 1,3-dienes with N-tosyl-2-aminophenols was developed by making use of a chiral pyridinebis(oxazoline) ligand. The highly regioselective reaction provides direct and efficient access to chiral 3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazines in high yield and enantioselectivity (up to 96:4 e.r.). The reaction employs readily available N-tosyl-2-aminophenols as a unique aminohydroxylation reagent and is complementary to known asymmetric aminohydroxylation methods.

Conformation
The simplest example of a diene is 1,3-butadiene, an acyclic conjugated π system. At room temperature, the molecule exists as a mixture of s-cis and s-trans conformers by virtue of rotation around the carbon–carbon single bond. Although the s-trans isomer is more stable,...

Structure of Conjugated Dienes
Conjugated dienes are compounds characterized by the presence of alternating double and single bonds. In a conjugated system like 1,3-butadiene, the unhybridized 2p orbital on each carbon overlaps continuously, allowing the π electrons to be delocalized across the entire molecule. In contrast, this type of overlap does not occur in cumulated and isolated dienes, such as 2,3-pentadiene and 1,4-pentadiene, respectively. Instead, the π electrons remain localized between the double...
