An expeditious synthesis of novel DNA nucleobase mimics of (+)-anisomycin

Photoinduced Disulfide-Catalyzed Intramolecular Anti-Markovnikov Hydroamination through in Situ N–S Species

“…Anti-Markovnikov hydroamination, the addition of the simple N–H functional groups across alkenes in a direct, atom-economical, and less prevalent fashion, is an ideal but still underdeveloped protocol to synthesize the highly valuable aliphatic amines. The direct conversion of para -alkoxy-styrenes provides a powerful tool to build the para -alkoxy-phenethylamine derivatives, which are a particularly important class of nitrogen-containing compounds and serve as substructures in a wide variety of natural and drug molecules …”
