We demonstrated a ruthenium-catalyzed regioselective allylic amination of tertiary allylic esters with various amines using [Cp*Ru(CH3CN)(3)][PF6]/5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (5,'-diMe-2,2'-bpy) and related ruthenium catalytic systems, and successfully obtained a diverse range of alpha-tertiary amines as single regioisomers. The present ruthenium catalytic system was effective for reactions with various types of amines.
