The sequential reaction of chlorosulfonyl isocyanate with t-BuOH, t-BuNH2 and TFA allows formation of H2NSO2NHBut. Condensation of the latter with Ar1CHO in the presence of Ti(OEt)4 provides the activated imines Ar1CHNSO2NHBut (59–89%). Commercially available boronic acids add to these imines with good stereoselectivity (76–98% ee) using readily available diene ligands. Simple deprotection with 5% w/w water in pyridine affords free Ar1CHNH2Ar2.
