Description
Summary:We report a combined experimental and computational study of Pd/Senphos-catalyzed carboboration of 1,3-enynes utilizing DFT calculations, 31 P NMR study, kinetic study, Hammett analysis and Arrhenius/Eyring analysis. Our mechanistic study provides evidence against the conventional inner-sphere β-migratory insertion mechanism. Instead, a syn outer-sphere oxidative addition mechanism featuring a Pd-π-allyl intermediate followed by coordination-assisted rearrangements is consistent with all the experimental observations. A combined experimental and computational study of Pd/Senphos-catalyzed carboboration of 1,3-enynes reveals a syn outer-sphere oxidative addition mechanism featuring a Pd-π-allyl intermediate followed by coordination-assisted rearrangements.
