J Am Chem Soc. 2012 Oct 10;134(40):16449-51. doi: 10.1021/ja305448w. Epub 2012 Sep 24.

Abstract

The direct amination of alkyl and aryl pinacol boronates is accomplished with lithiated methoxyamine. This reaction directly provides aliphatic and aromatic amines, stereospecifically, and without preactivation of the boronate substrate.
