1. Introduction Cascade catalysis, in which a catalytic cycle is concatenated to another eventually leading to the 1. Introduction final product, is one of the most exciting areas of modern catalysis [1–10]. Although rather frequent Cascade catalysis, in which a catalytic cycle is concatenated to another eventually leading to the in biological systems [11], where processes may be sequentially catalyzed by different enzymes, it is final product, is one of the most exciting areas of modern catalysis [1–10]. Although rather frequent still relatively rare in chemical transformations, they usually two concatenated cycles. in biological systems [11], where processes maywhere be sequentially catalyzed involve by different enzymes, it is stillinteresting relatively rare case, in chemical transformations, where usually involve two concatenated A particularly commonly referred asthey “auto-tandem catalysis” [9],cycles. occurs when the A particularly interesting case, commonly referred as “auto-tandem catalysis” [9], occurs when the same catalytic system is able to catalyze both the concatenated cycles, as shown in Scheme 1. same catalytic system is able to catalyze both the concatenated cycles, as shown in Scheme 1.

Our first experiment was carried out using N-benzyl-2-methylbut-3-yn-2-amine (1a) as the substrate. This compound was allowed to react with CO, morpholine (2a), O2 , and water in the presence of the catalytic system PdI2 /KI under the following conditions: PdI2 /KI/1a/2a/H2 O molar ratio = 1:10:50:250:250, T = 100 ˝ C, P(CO) = 16 atm, P(air) = 4 atm, EmimEtSO4 as the solvent (0.5 mmol of 1a per mL of solvent) (Table 1, entry 1, run 1). After 24 h, the reaction crude was extracted several times with diethyl ether and the collected ethereal phases analyzed by TLC, GLC and GC-MS, who revealed the formation of two products whose MS spectra were compatible with the expected isomeric oxazolidinone products 3aa-Z and 3aa-E. The two isomers were isolated by column chromatography and their structure confirmed by IR, 1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR spectroscopies (Z/E ratio = 3.1:1, total yield = 70%). The yield turned out to be lower using only 2 equiv of 2a instead of 5 (total yield = 55%). These results confirmed the possibility to carry out the auto-tandem catalysis process leading to oxazolidinones 3 in an ionic liquid (IL) as unconventional solvent. We accordingly verified the possibility to recycle the catalyst/solvent system. Thus, the residue obtained after product extraction with diethyl ether (still containing the catalyst dissolved in the IL), after drying under vacuum (to eliminate the residual diethyl ether), was used again by adding to it fresh propargylamine 1a and morpholine (2a) (1:5 ratio). After stirring at 100 ˝ C for 24 h, 3aa was obtained again as a 3.2:1 Z/E mixture in 71% total isolated yield (Table 1, entry 1, run 2), after extraction with diethyl ether. The recycling procedure was then successfully repeated up to six times. In order to assess the generality of the method, the reaction was then performed using different combinations of propargylic amines 1a–e and secondary amines 2a–d, with the results shown in Table 1, entries 2–9. As can be seen from Table 1, the method could be successfully applied to propargylic amines bearing various alkyl groups α to the triple bond, including simple alkyl groups (such as methyl and ethyl (1a, 1b, and 1d) and a cyclic chain such as –(CH2 )4 , (1c)), different groups on nitrogen (such as benzyl (1a–c) and butyl (1e, 1f)), and different nucleophilic secondary amines, both cyclic (as in the case of morpholine (2a), piperidine (2b), and pyrrolidine (2c)) and acyclic (as in the case of diethylamine (2d)). In all cases, good yields of the corresponding 2-(2-oxooxazolidin-5-ylidene)acetamides 3 were obtained (69%–76%), and the PdI2 /KI/EmimEtSO4 system could be conveniently recycled up to six times without loss of activity. 3. Experimental Section 3.1. General Information Chemicals were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Italia (Milano, Italy) and were used as such without further purification. Melting points were taken on a Reichert Thermovar apparatus and are uncorrected. 1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR spectra were recorded at 25 ˝ C in CDCl3 solutions with a Bruker DPX Avance 300 spectrometer (Bruker Italia, Milano, Italy) operating at 300 MHz and 75 MHz, respectively, with Me4 Si as internal standard. IR spectra were taken with a JASCO FT-IR 4200 spectrometer (Jasco Europe s.r.l., Cremella, Lecco, Italy). Mass spectra were obtained using a Shimadzu QP-2010 GC-MS apparatus (Shimadzu Italia, Milano, Italy) at 70 eV ionization voltage. Microanalyses were carried out with a Thermo-Fischer Elemental Analyzer Flash 2000 (Fischer Scientific Italia, Rodani, Milano, Italy). All reactions were analyzed by TLC (Merck Italy, Vimodrone, Milano, Italy) on silica gel 60 F254 (Merck Italy) or on neutral alumina (Merck Italy) and by GLC using a Shimadzu GC-2010 gas chromatograph (Shimadzu Italia) and capillary columns with polymethylsilicone + 5% polyphenylsilicone as the stationary phase (HP-5). Column chromatography was performed on neutral alumina 90 (Merck Italy, 70–230 mesh). Evaporation refers to the removal of solvent under reduced pressure. 3.2. Preparation of Substrates Starting propargylic amines 1a–e were prepared and characterized as already described [20].

3.3. Preparation of EmimEtSO4 Ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate (EmimEtSO4 ) was prepared as previously described [31]. 3.4. General Procedure for the PdI2 /KI-Catalyzed Oxidative Carbonylation of Propargylic Amines (1) with CO, O2 , and Secondary Amines (2) in EmimEtSO4 and Recycling Experiments A 35 mL stainless steel autoclave was charged with PdI2 (8.3 mg, 0.023 mmol), KI (38.3 mg, 0.23 mmol), the starting propargylic amine 1 (1a, 199.0 mg; 1b, 215.0 mg; 1c, 245.0 mg; 1d, 176.0 mg; 1e, 206.0 mg; 1.15 mmol) and the amine 2 (2a, 501.0 mg; 2b, 490.0 mg; 2c, 409.0 mg; 2d, 420.6 mg; 5.75 mmol) in EmimEtSO4 (2.3 mL). Water (103.5 µL, 5.75 mmol) was then added and the autoclave was sealed, and pressurized at 20 atm (16 atm CO and 4 atm Air). After stirring at 100 ˝ C for 24 h, the autoclave was cooled and degassed. The mixture was then extracted with Et2 O (6 ˆ 4 mL), and the residue (still containing the catalyst and water dissolved in the ionic liquid) was used as such for the next recycle (see below). The collected ethereal phases were concentrated and the products purified by column chromatography on neutral alumina using as the eluent hexane:AcOEt from 95:5 to 6:4 (the E isomers were eluted first in all cases).

Note: Product 3dd-Z could not be isolated at the pure state by column chromatography, and the GLC analysis evidenced a purity of ca. 60%. The GLC-MS analysis was compatible with the proposed structure and 1 H-NMR spectrum of the crude product evidenced a peak at 5.19, compatible with a Z stereochemistry. For testing recycling of the catalyst, after removal of Et2 O under vacuum, the residue obtained as described above, still containing the catalyst dissolved in the ionic liquid, was transferred into the autoclave. The starting material 1 (1.15 mmol), the amine 2 (5.75 mmol) and H2 O (103.5 µL, 5.75 mmol) was added, and then the same procedure described above was followed. 3.5. Characterization of Products Oxazolidinones 3aa-Z, 3aa-E, 3ab-Z, 3ab-E, 3ad-Z, 3ad-E, 3ba-Z, 3ba-E, 3ca-Z, 3ca-E, 3da-Z, 3da-E, 3ea-Z, 3ea-E, were characterized by comparison with the characterization data already reported by us [20]. All the other products were fully characterized by MS spectrometry, IR, 1 H-NMR and 13 C-NMR spectroscopies, and elemental analysis, as reported below.

Conclusions In conclusion, we have shown that it is possible to successfully perform the PdI2 /KI-catalyzed auto-tandem catalysis oxidative carbonylative process leading to oxazolidone derivatives 3 in an ionic liquid, such as EmimEtSO4 , as unconventional solvent, and that the catalyst/solvent system can be easily recycled several times without loss of activity.
