Abstract

Abstract The intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes proceeds very smoothly in the presence of a catalytic amount of the aquapalladium complex [Pd (dppe)(H 2 O) 2](TfO) 2. This reaction most probably proceeds through the formation of an equilibrium between the hydroxopalladium and the amidopalladium complexes, and subsequent aminopalladation of alkynes.(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
