Abstract

This article reports the reaction of allyltrimethylsilane 1 with aldimines 2 in the presence of tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride to give the corresponding homoallylamines 3 in moderate to excellent yields. The allylation mechanism of imines as well as that of aldehydes can be reasonably interpreted by a fluoride-triggered autocatalytic procedure.
