Abstract
An operationally simple and efficient AgOTf-promoted tandem olefin isomerization/intramolecular hydroamination of 1,1-disubstituted alkenyl amines provides diverse 2-alkyl-substituted 1,3-X,N-heterocycles in very good yields through chemo- and regioselective C(sp3)-N bond formation with high atom economy. The reaction offers high functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope.

General Procedure for AgOTf-Promoted Tandem Olefin Isomerization/Hydroamination
Substrate (0.189 - 3.171 mmol, 1 equiv) and AgOTf (2 - 20 mol%) were dissolved in ClCH2CH2Cl (1.9~31.7 ml, 0.1 M). The resulting mixture was stirred at 80 - 120 °C for the reported time under aerobic conditions (in a closed vial with a screw cap). After the reaction was completed, the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (EtOAc : n-Hexane = 1:3, 1:5, 1:6, 1:8, or 1:10) to give the corresponding product. All reactions were carried out 2-3 times repetitively and the average values of yields are given.
