The competing mechanisms of silver-/aminolithium-catalyzed hydrofunctionalization ofα,β-unsaturated ester with an amino alcohol have been systematically studied with the DFT methods. Here, the acidity of a weaker nucleophile OH group of an amino alcohol is significantly higher than that of NH2group, so it is easy to deprotonate by Ag(HMDS)/dppe. However, the generated Ag–O bond is more stable than the corresponding Ag–N bond. Therefore, the OH group shows higher reactivity than the NH2group in the presence of a Lewis acid/Brønsted base pair catalyst. Then,α,β-unsaturated esters can be inserted into corresponding Ag–O bonds to obtain alkyl silver species. Alkyl silver can be protonated by bis(trimethylsilyl)amines to obtain hydrogen functionalized products and regenerate silver amino active compounds Ag(HMDS)/dppe.
