for carbon–carbon bond formation; however, consumption of stoichiometric amounts of metals is problematic. We developed electrochemical allylation reactions of imines catalyzed by nitrogen-doped carbon-supported single-atom zinc, which were fixed on a cathode to afford a range of homoallylic amines efficiently. The system could suppress generation of metallic waste, and the catalyst electrode showed
umpolung strategy for the synthesis of homoallylamines from unactivated imines and allyl bromides is described. This strategy exploited N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) as an auxiliary agent to indirectly realize the cross-coupling of imines and allyl bromides. Various stericallyhindered homoallylamines were synthesized by combining photocatalysis with halogen atom transfer (XAT). Notable characteristics
