Nickel-Catalyzed, Aminoquinoline-Directed Chemo- and Regioselective Carboamination of Unactivated Olefins with Organoboronic Acids and Anthranils

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

A nickel-catalyzed three-component carboamination of unactivated alkenes with organoboronic acids and anthranils has been achieved for the expedient synthesis of δ-aryl and γ-amino acid derivatives. The 8-aminoquinoline (AQ) directing group is crucial for the success of the reaction, and anthranil serves as an arylnitrene precursor in this conversion. This method features mild reaction conditions, good chemo- and regioselectivity, and a broad substrate scope with good functional group tolerance.
