Intermolecular Hydroamination of Alkynes Catalyzed by Dimethyltitanocene.
A completely new application of dimethyltitanocene as catalyst for the intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes is presented. With this inexpensive and readily available catalyst, alkynes can be easily converted into imines, amines, and ketones (see reaction scheme).
