Abstract

AbstractAn efficient and mild trifluoromethanesulfonic acid‐catalyzed hydroamination of unfunctionalized alkenes to afford α‐tertiary amine derivatives at temperatures as low as room temperature is reported. 2,2,2‐Trifluoroethyl sulfamate was found to be the optimal nitrogen source because its good solubility in both organic solvents and water facilitated both conversion and purification. The reaction conditions were compatible with a variety of substrate functional groups and afforded moderate to good yields. The desired amine compounds could be obtained easily by means of a mild, one‐pot, redox‐neutral deprotection procedure. Caryolane amine was synthesized with excellent chemo‐ and regioselectivities by means of a cascade hydroamination reaction of β‐caryophyllene.magnified image
