title: Electronic modification of an aminotroponiminate zinc complex leading to an increased reactivity in the hydroamination of alkenes.
abstract: The electronically modified zinc complex 5-phenylsulfanyl-N-isopropyl-2-(isopropylamino)troponiminate zinc methyl, [(PhS-ATI(iPr)2)ZnMe], was synthesized. It showed an increased reactivity in the intramolecular hydroamination reaction of non-activated alkenes compared to a previously-reported, non-substituted complex.
