J Am Chem Soc. 2019 Feb 20;141(7):2889-2893. doi: 10.1021/jacs.8b13251. Epub 2019 Feb 8.

Abstract

A functional group exchange reaction between allylamines and alkenes via nickel-catalyzed C-C bond cleavage and formation was developed. This reaction provides a novel protocol, which does not require the use of unstable imine substrates, for the synthesis of allylamines, which are widely used in the production of fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals.
