The net addition of an N-H group across a carbon–carbon double bond
represents an extremely efficient method to access amines. In particular, the
ability to conduct this transformation in a general and enantioselective
manner is quite attractive. In this lecture, we will describe our success in
developing a highly regio- and enantioselective process for the hydroamination
of a wide range of olefinic substrates. We will also detail our
studies in reaction optimization achieved by way of mechanistic studies.
