Abstract

The transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective amination of allylic esters and carbonates represents one of the most wellestablished routes to chiral, nonracemic allylic amines.[1] With the potential to condense synthetic sequences and reduce waste streams, the dehydrative amination of allylic alcohols as a route to enantiomerically enriched allylic amines has gained considerable interest. However, while the stereospecific amination of ...
