title: Facile, efficient, and catalyst-free electrophilic aminoalkoxylation of olefins: scope and application.
abstract: A new one-pot electrophilic aminoalkoxylation reaction using olefin, cyclic ether, amine, and N-bromosuccinimide has been developed. The olefinic substrates and the cyclic ether partners can be flexibly varied to produce a range of amino ether derivatives. This novel protocol has been applied in the facile and efficient synthesis of biologically active morpholine compounds.
