with nitriles has been achieved by using rare‐earth complexes. This reaction is equivalent to the desired intramolecular hydroamination of alkenylamidines, and allows a new direct access to substituted 2‐imidazolines and tetrahydropyrimidines in high yields under operationally simple reaction conditions. Moreover, the methodology is also efficient for synthesis of symmetric and unsymmetric bridged diimidazolines

and nitriles is also developed. Additionally, amidine reconstruction followed by an intramolecular alkene hydroamidination strategy for the synthesis of substituted imidazolines and tetrahydropyrimidines from secondary enamines and inactive amidines has also been established, which may circumvent the need for some unavailable starting materials. The mechanistic studies prove that these reactions proceed
