A series of symmetrical and unsymmetrical N,N'-disubstituted aminotroponimines (ATIHs) have been prepared. Substituents ranging from linear to cyclic alkyl groups, chelating ethers, and aryl groups were employed. The corresponding aminotroponiminate zinc complexes were then synthesized and characterized by a number of techniques, including by X-ray crystallography. Herein we report on the investigations into their activity in the intramolecular hydroamination of nonactivated alkenes. We also demonstrate that complexes bearing ligands with cyclic alkyl groups show superior activity in a number of selected reactions with functionalized aminoalkenes.
