Abstract

The authors report an efficient ­intramolecular aminooxygenation of protected ­primary amines bearing a terminal olefin. The ­suggested mechanism involves the selective syn-aminocupration of the double bond via a chair- or boat-like transition state. The following radical elimination of Cu(I) and recombination of the resulting 2,5-syn-configured pyrrolidinyl radicals with TEMPO affords the corresponding alkoxyl-amines in high diastereoselectivity and excellent yields.
