Recent advances in palladium difunctionaliztion of dienes include a diamination variant reported by Lloyd-Jones and Booker-Milburn (Fig. 2).3 The authors choose to utilize N,N'-diethyl urea (1) as a nitrogen nucleophile to attenuate the Lewis basicity of the nitrogen relative to amines, making it less likely to bind palladium and inhibit catalysis. Further, tethering the nitrogen
