Abstract
The system generated from lithium anilide and [(Et3P)2RhCl]2 catalyzes (turnover 21) the regioselective condensation of aniline with styrene to give a mixture of PhNH-CH(CH3)Ph (hydroamination product) and PhN= C(CH3)Ph (oxidative hydroamination product) in c.a.1/2 ratio. This 100 % regioselective oxidative hydroamination has been confirmed in the ca se of 1-hexene.
