Enantioselective intramolecular alkene hydroaminations catalyzed by yttrium complexes of axially chiral bis(thiolate) ligands.
[structure: see text] A yttrium(III) complex derived from proligand 7c has been shown to be a superior catalyst for enantioselective intramolecular alkene hydroaminations that provide cyclic amines with ee's ranging from 69% to 89%.
