Zusammenfassung:
We report the use of benzylamine as the amine component in Hantzsch ester mediated and chiral Brønsted acid catalyzed enantioselective reductive aminations of ketones. The method is noteworthy because the benzyl group is easily removable, and amine product purification is achieved through Hantzsch ester oxidation product removal via basic hydrolysis.
