Under the conditions of ruthenium catalyzed transfer hydrogenation using 2-propanol as terminal reductant, 1,3-dienes engage in reductive C-C coupling with formaldimines obtained <i>in situ</i> from 1,3,5-tris(aryl)-hexahydro-1,3,5-triazines to form homoallylic amines. Deuterium labelling studies corroborate a mechanism involving reversible diene hydroruthenation to form an allylruthenium complex that engages in turn-over limiting imine addition. Protonolysis of the resulting amidoruthenium spec ...[more]
