    Abstract

    A metal-free aminoarylation of internal alkynes is described, yielding tetrasubstituted enaminoates. The transformation proceeds in good to excellent yields through a tandem conjugate addition/Smiles rearrangement involving aryl and heteroaryl sulfonamides. Substrate scope is very broad under simple, user-friendly conditions, and the reaction can be used to easily access biologically active phenethylamine derivatives.
