Access to furanyl- and pyrrolyl-3-carboxamides from readily available 3-alkyne-1,2-diols and 1-amino-3-alkyn-2-ols using isocyanate as amido surrogate is demonstrated. The approach constitutes a successful unprecedented combination of heteropalladation and isocyanate insertion, a new avenue for novel amide bond constructions. The mechanism likely involves a 6-membered oxaaminopalladacycle as the key intermediate.
