Published: July 2007

A new atom economical approach for the preparation of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines can be achieved by means of the intramolecular hydroaminomethylation of 2-isopropenylanilines, mediated by an ionic diamino rhodium catalyst that does not require phosphine--this reaction is highly chemo- and regioselective, and it occurs in good isolated yields.
