Abstract

It has recently been demonstrated that alkenes,' alkynes,2 and allenes3 undergo regiospecific hydroesterification at room temperature and atmospheric pressure affording saturated or unsaturated carboxylic esters in good yields [eg reaction (l)]. We now report the application of this process to aromatic amines, heteroatom-bearing substrates lacking the unsatu- rated functionalities previously investigated. It was expected ...
