J Am Chem Soc. 2012 Feb 1;134(4):2012-5. doi: 10.1021/ja211090n. Epub 2012 Jan 20.

Abstract

Stereoselective, intramolecular, formal hydroamination of dienamines via directed hydroboration is reported. Four stereocenters are set in the process. Natural and unnatural indolizidine alkaloids can be synthesized from simple unsaturated amines using the title process.
