Recent Trends and Prospects in the Iron-Catalyzed Amination Reactions

Abstract

Iron-catalyzed C–H amination reactions had turned up as a potent tool in synthetic organic chemistry in recent years. These reactions are eco-friendly, highly catalytic efficient and show good functional group tolerance. The organonitrogen products of the reaction have found wide applications in agricultural chemistry, medicinal chemistry, industrial chemistry and natural product synthesis. This review focuses on the recent progress in iron-catalyzed C–H amination reactions and covers literature from 2019–2021.
