Abstract

(Chemical Equation Presented) Simple and versatile: A new zinc complex catalyzes the intramolecular hydroamination of nonactivated alkynes and alkenes (see example in scheme; {(iPr)2ATI} = N-isopropyl-2-(isopropylamino) troponiminato). The catalyst is relatively robust, exhibits excellent activities, and tolerates various functional groups such as ethers, thioethers, and amides.
