Abstract
The synthesis of β-amino esters or amides has been achieved from moderate to high yields from the reaction of imines and α-halo esters or amides promoted by catalytic amounts of samarium diiodide in the presence of magnesium turnings as co-reductant. A mechanism is proposed to explain this catalytic samarium(II)-promoted aza-Reformatsky reaction.
