Direct and selective synthesis of primary amines from easily available precursors is attractive yet challenging. Herein, we report the rapid synthesis of primary amines from alkenes via metal-free regioselective hydroamination at room temperature. Ammonium carbonate was used as ammonia surrogate for the first time, allowing for efficient conversion of terminal and internal alkenes into linear, α-branched, and α-tertiary primary amines under mild conditions. This method provides a straightforward and powerful approach to a wide spectrum of advanced, highly functionalized primary amines which are of particular interest in pharmaceutical chemistry and other areas.

An efficient synthesis of N-phthalimidyl, benzamidyl, acetamidyl, carbamoyl, and ureayl derivatives of dihydropyridines and the application of these reagents as precursors for N-centered radicals are presented. These aminated dihydropyridines could be used in radical-transfer hydroamination reactions of various electron-rich as well as nonactivated olefins in the presence of thiols as polarity-reversal catalysts. These reactions worked without the aid of any transition metal. Steric and electronic effects exerted by the N-substitutents of the N-centered radicals are discussed. In contrast to most metal-catalyzed processes, the radical hydroamination delivered the opposite regioisomer with excellent anti-Markovnikov selectivity. Hydroamination products were obtained as protected amines that are readily isolated. Festival of amination: We have presented an efficient synthesis of N-phthalimidyl, benzamidyl, acetamidyl, carbamoyl, and ureayl derivatives of dihydropyridines and the application of these reagents as precursors for N-centered radicals (see scheme). These aminated dihydropyridines can be used in radical-transfer hydroamination reactions.
