Formal Intermolecular Hydroamination of Unbiased Olefins for Primary Amine Formation

A Pd/Ir dual metal tandem catalyst system was found to be active in catalyzing the one-pot, two-step formal hydroamination of unbiased olefins such as 1-dodecene with an ammonia source to give branched primary amines in high yields of >85 % by using only 1 mol-% of the Ir catalyst. This is the fi...

Description
Summary:A Pd/Ir dual metal tandem catalyst system was found to be active in catalyzing the one-pot, two-step formal hydroamination of unbiased olefins such as 1-dodecene with an ammonia source to give branched primary amines in high yields of >85 % by using only 1 mol-% of the Ir catalyst. This is the first report of the formal one-pot intermolecular hydroamination of olefins to obtain primary amines.
