title: Aminations with Hypervalent Iodine.
abstract: Recent progress in the area of hypervalent iodine-mediated and catalyzed amination reaction of hydrocarbons is reviewed. These reactions comprise processes under both intra and intermolecular control and include the functionalization of aromatic C-H bonds as well as conversion of sp-, sp(2)-, and sp(3)-hybridized carbon atoms. These developments demonstrate that hypervalent iodine(III) methodology has reached a high level in amination chemistry. The individual reactions are discussed with a focus on mechanistic details and emphasis is made to the underlying hypervalent iodine reagents, for which structural information is available.
