Computational studies were carried out to investigate the detailed mechanism of Pd(0) and benzoic acid co-catalyzed hydroamination of internal alkynes.In the presence of the benzoic acid,the formation of a hydridopalladium intermediate via the oxidative addition(OA) of the O-H bond of benzoic acid into the Pd(0) complex center might not be a favorable reaction pathway to start the reaction.Instead,after the coordination of benzoic acid with the Pd(0)-alkyne complex,a proton transfer process from the acid to carbon of alkyne is found to be a favorable pathway,leading to the alkenyl(PhCOO) Pd(Ⅱ) intermediate.Next,the resulting alkenyl(PhCOO) Pd(Ⅱ) species would produce phenylallene intermediate via a β-H elimination step assisted by the formed benzoate anion.Subsequently,the benzoic acid might undergo a second proton step to the phenylallene intermediate to produce the π-allylpalladium species.Finally,the amine substrate could undergo a nucleophilic addition to the terminal carbon of the π-allylpalladium species to produce the hydroamination product.
