Investigations toward metal-free hydroamination approaches to aromatic nitrogen heterocycles

Abstract

Metal-free hydroamination approaches were investigated to afford aromatic nitrogen heterocycles. Several substrates were synthesized to test different sequences such as 6-endo-dig and 6-exo-dig cyclization. The desired reactivity was observed for each of the desired routes, which were discussed in Chapter 2. More research is needed for optimization in the future.* *Please refer to dissertation for diagrams.
