“…Three main catalytic systems have been developed for direct alcohol amination: (i) the borrowing hydrogen method using either Ru or Ir complexes, or non‐noble metal complexes based on Mn or Fe, (ii) Tsuji–Trost type reactions for allylic alcohols using Pd or Ni[6a], complexes, and (iii) Lewis‐acid (LA) catalysts based on a variety of salts and ligands. [2a], [2d] In the latter case, metal triflate [M(OTf) n ] and triflimide [M(NTf 2 ) n ] salts, based on Ca, Al, In, Yb, Bi, Ag, Hg, and HOTf, proved to be efficient. However, the reaction scope is limited to electron‐poor amine derivatives, such as amides, sulfonamides, carbamates and activated alcohols.…”
