Hydroaminations of alkenes: a radical, revised, and expanded version.

Radical changes: The applicability of alkene hydroamination has recently been significantly expanded by the development of radical variants that are based on initial hydrogen atom transfer to the alkene. This Highlight assesses the current state of the art, focusing on an iron-catalyzed reaction that utilizes stable nitroarenes as the electrophilic N component and is based on the dual catalytic activation of both starting materials.
