Ruthenium(II)‐Catalyzed Hydroamination of Allenoates: A Regioselective Synthesis of Allylamines

Abstract A ruthenium(II)‐catalyzed hydroamination of allenoates with arylamines has been developed. This strategy provides an approach to synthesize E ‐allylic amines in good yields with high atom‐economy and high levels of chemo‐, regio‐ and E ‐selectivities with a broad substrate scope. magnified image
