title: Intramolecular hydroamination of aminoalkenes catalyzed by a cationic zirconium complex.
abstract: A new cationic [N(-)O(-)S]zirconium complex (cat.) was developed to be an excellent catalyst for the intramolecular hydroamination of aminoalkenes with a large substrate scope from terminal alkenes to internal alkenes, and primary amines to secondary amines. The catalyst system can also tolerate various functional groups and perform sequential hydroamination of primary aminodienes.
