Application

  • Triallylamine (TAA) reacts with primary aromatic amines in the presence of a ruthenium catalyst to form 2-ethyl-3-methylquinolines.
  • TAA undergoes hydrozirconation followed by transmetalation with germanium tetrachloride to form 1-aza-5-germa-5-chlorobicyclo[3.3.3]undecane. This compound can react with Grignard or lithium reagents to form the corresponding 5-organo compounds.
  • The cycloaddition of TAA to fluorinated 1,3,4-oxadiazoles affords octahydro-2,7-methanofuro[3,2-c]pyridines.
