Chiral α-branched allylic amines are important building blocks for organic synthesis, and several catalytic asymmetric methods have been developed for their synthesis. For example, the enantioselective metal-catalyzed amination of allylic electrophiles [1–3] and the rearrangement of allylic imidates [4–6] have proven to be highly effective. An alternative approach to chiral allylic amines that can be advantageous from the viewpoint of ...
