Transition-metal catalyzed functionalization of ACPs has been widely investigated in cycloaddition and 1,3-difunctionalization reactions. However, the transition metal catalyzed nucleophilic reactions of ACPs have rarely been reported. In this article, an enantio-, site- and E/Z-selective addition of ACPs with imines for the synthesis of dienyl substituted amines has been developed via palladium- and Brønsted acid co-catalysis. A range of synthetically valuable dienyl substituted amines were effectively prepared with good to excellent yields and excellent enantio- and E/Z-selectivities.
