The catalytic conversion of chemical feedstocks into products medicinal and agricultural value is a key theme across modern synthetic chemistry. As 1,3-dienes are readily available from industrial cracking processes, there great interest in the development sustainable methods for functionalization these simple molecules. Although initial developments this field have required precious-transition-metal catalysts, has been push toward use inexpensive, nontoxic, more abundant copper catalysts to promote functionalization. This Perspective covers many area copper-catalyzed 1,3-dienes, particular hydrofunctionalization, borofunctionalization, difunctionalization (e.g., diamination).

Metal-hydride-catalyzed hydroalkylation of 1,3-dienes with enolizable carbonyl compounds is an atom- and step-economical method for preparing chiral molecules allylic stereocenters. Although high diastereo- enantioselectivities have been achieved many coupling partners, aldehydes not yet used this purpose because they are less stable than other under basic conditions the potential to rapidly epimerize at α-position. Moreover, stereodivergent reactions access complementary diastereomers vicinal stereocenters challenging. Herein, we describe a synergistic palladium/amine catalyst system that allowed us achieve first aldehydes. By choosing appropriate combination palladium amine catalysts, could obtain either syn or anti products, therefore provides highly enantioselective α,β-vicinal Density functional theory calculations revealed mechanism involving PdH formation migratory insertion into alkene, followed by C–C bond formation. The origin stereoselectivities was investigated means distortion/interaction analysis.
