: Migratory insertion is a fundamental organometallic transformation that enables the functionalization of an unsaturated bond. Recent reports on catalytic hydroamination provide evidence that supports an intermolecular migratory insertion pathway featuring alkene insertion into metal-nitrogen (M-N) bonds. This article presents factors influencing the rate of migratory insertion in late-transition metal-catalyzed hydroamination, including steric and electronic effects from ligands, alkenes, and metal centers, along with stabilization from coordinated amine intermediates and ordered transition states.

Hydrosilylation is a well-established reaction for the preparation of organo-silicon compounds, in which vinyl groups react with silanes (Si–H) usually catalysed by late transition metal complexes, most often Pt(ii) complexes.

A highly efficient synthesis of oxygenated 5,5-spiroketals was performed towards the synthesis of the cephalosporolides. Gold(I) chloride in methanol induced the cycloisomerization of a protected alkyne triol with concomitant deprotection to give a strategically hydroxylated 5,5-spiroketal, despite the potential for regiochemical complications and elimination to furan. Other late transition metal Lewis acids were less effective. The use of methanol as solvent helped suppress the formation of the undesired furan by-product. This study provides yet another example of the advantages of gold catalysis in the activation of alkyne π-systems.
