Aldimines and ketimines containing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups can be hydrosilylated with borenium catalysts at as low as 1 mol% catalyst loading at room temperature, providing the corresponding secondary amines in excellent yields. Reactions with 2-phenylquinoline gave the 1,4-hydrosilylquinoline product selectively which can be further functionalized in a one-pot synthesis to give unique γ-amino alcohol derivatives. Control experiments suggest that the borenium ion catalyzes both the hydrosilylation and subsequent addition to the aldehyde.
