The direct reaction between carbamates and achiral allylic carbonates to form branched, conveniently protected primary allylic amines with high regioselectivity and enantioselectivity is reported. This process occurs without base or with 0.5 equiv K(3)PO(4) in the presence of a metalacyclic iridium catalyst containing a labile ethylene ligand. The reactions of aryl-, heteroaryl-, and alkyl-substituted allylic carbonates with BocNH(2), FmocNH(2), CbzNH(2), TrocNH(2), TeocNH(2), and 2-oxazolidinon ...[more]
