title: Regio- and chemoselective intermolecular hydroamination of allyl imines for the synthesis of 1,2-diamines.
abstract: The synthesis of 1,2-diamines via a Rh-catalyzed intermolecular hydroamination of N-allyl imines with cyclic amines is presented. Coordinating groups proximal to the olefin bind to the catalyst and promote the transformation. The reaction affords 1,2-diamines in very good yields and is functional-group-tolerant and highly diastereoselective.
