“…In order to avoid chemical waste produced in time-consuming multistep syntheses, hydroamination was discovered as an alternative access to nitrogen-containing molecules. Hydroamination, the direct addition of amine N−H bonds to C−C multiple bonds, attracted the attention of many researchers and thus was intensely studied for the last decades. − Catalytic hydroamination was investigated for a wide range of complexes of various metals, such as alkali metals, ,,,, early transition metals, ,, late transition metals, ,,,,,, and lanthanides and actinides, ,− ,− ,− and very recently aluminum compounds were studied for hydroamination reactions. , Early transition metal and late transition metal catalysts have to be distinguished. Complexes of early transition metals, such as group 4 ,,,,, and the rare earth elements, ,− ,− ,− are highly efficient catalysts for the hydroamination, but the synthetic application is limited by their high sensitivity toward moisture and air and their low tolerance to polar functional groups.…”
