Transition-metal-free reductive functionalization of tertiary carboxamides and lactams for α-branched amine synthesis
A new method for the synthesis of α-branched amines by reductive functionalization of tertiary carboxamides and lactams is described. The process relies on the efficient and controlled reduction of tertiary amides by a sodium hydride/sodium iodide composite, in situ treatment of the resulting anioni...
