title: Ruthenium-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective allylic amination of racemic 1-arylallyl esters.
abstract: The regio- and enantioselective allylic amination of racemic monosubstituted allylic esters, such as 1-arylallyl acetates, with cyclic secondary amines has been accomplished. The RuCl3/(S,S)-ip-pybox catalyst system has effectively catalyzed the reaction to afford the enantiomerically enriched branch-type allylic amines with perfect regioselectivity and high enantioselectivity.
