Electrochemical functionalization of allylic amines: a straightforward route to relevant aza-compounds

Abstract

Allylic amines are versatile building blocks in organic synthesis that can be readily transformed into relevant azacompounds through functionalization of the carbon-carbon double bond. Practical electrochemical approaches offer the advantage of operating under mild, safe, eco-friendly, and cost-effective conditions. This short review summarizes advances in the electricity-enabled functionalization of allylic amines, with particular emphasis on mechanistic insights. It highlights the synthesis of valuable azacycles and β-arylethylamines. Finally, future directions are discussed to inspire synthetic chemists to pursue increasingly complex nitrogencontaining architectures via electrochemical functionalization of allylic amines.
