title: Intermolecular Hydropyridylation of Unactivated Alkenes.
abstract: A general method for the hydropyridylation of unactivated alkenes is described. The transformation connects metal-mediated hydrogen atom transfer to alkenes and Minisci addition reactions. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions with high site-selectivities and allows for the construction of tertiary and quaternary centers from simple alkene starting materials.
