Abstract

Tertiary 2, 5-dienylamines are produced in moderate to good yields when vinylic halides are reacted with conjugated dienes and morpholine or piperidine in the presence of palladium catalysts. The vinylic group always adds to the terminal position of the least-substituted double bond of the diene system. The amine products are easily converted into allylic chlorides by reaction with chloroformate esters.
