The combination of cyclic ketones and stannyl amine protocol (SnAP) reagents affords saturated, spirocyclic N-heterocycles under operationally simple reaction conditions. The resulting, N-unprotected spirocyclic amines are in great demand as scaffolds for drug discovery and development. The union of SnAP reagents and acyclic trifluoromethylketones yields alpha-CF3 morpholines and piperazines.
