Asymmetric hydroamination of non-activated carbon-carbon multiple bonds

Dalton Trans. 2007 Nov 28:(44):5105-18. doi: 10.1039/b711126f. Epub 2007 Sep 7.

Abstract

The catalysed enantioselective formation of carbon-nitrogen bonds by the hydroamination reaction is reviewed. All examples deal with substrates containing non-activated carbon-carbon multiple bonds which are transformed either via intramolecular or intermolecular reactions. Structurally different complexes already provided nitrogen containing compounds/heterocycles with high enantioselectivities.
