“…The most widely applied methods are intramolecular N-alkylations, 1 [3 + 2] cycloadditions, 1,2 or intramolecular additions to multiple bonds. Most notable for the last strategy are Li-, 3 Pd-4 or lanthanoid-catalyzed 4c,5 cyclizations, intramolecular halo-or selenoaminations, 1,6 or cyclizations of aminyl radicals, 7 generated from N-haloamines, 8 N-sulfenylamines, 9 or PTOC-carbamates. 10 However, almost all of these methods are applicable only to primary and secondary amine derivatives 11 and require usually the preparation of N-functionalized precursors.…”
