Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic amination using chiral diaminophosphine oxides

An Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic amination using chiral diaminophosphine oxide is described. Asymmetric allylic amination of terminal allylic carbonates proceeded in the presence of 2 mol % of Ir catalyst, 2 mol % of chiral diaminophosphine oxide, 5 mol % of NaPF6, and BSA, affording the chiral branched allylic amines in up to 95% ee.
