Abstract

A convenient and mild iron-catalyzed 1,2-azidoamidation of 1,3-dienes shows excellent functional group compatibility to furnish versatile precursors to 1,2-diamine products with high levels of site, regio-, and stereoselectivity. The reaction is proposed to proceed via a single electron transfer/radical addition/C-N bond formation relay process.
