Abstract

The enantioselective allylic amination of unactivated terminal olefins represents a direct and attractive strategy for the synthesis of enantioenriched amines. We have developed the first use of a nitrogen-containing reagent and a chiral palladium catalyst to convert unfunctionalized olefins into enantioenriched allylic amines via an ene reaction/[2,3]-rearrangement.
