A convenient and simple method for synthesis of primary amines has been developed by direct amination of B- Chlorodialkylboranes. This general procedure has been applied to synthesize acyclic, cyclic, hindered and chiral amines in very high yields using both hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid and monochloroamine as reagents.
