The CC bond forming catalytic hydroaminoalkylation of terminal alkenes, 1,3‐dienes, or styrenes allows a direct and highly atom efficient (100 %) synthesis of amines which can result in the formation of two regioisomers, the linear and the branched product. We present a new titanium catalyst with 2,6‐bis(phenylamino)pyridinato ligands for intermolecular hydroaminoalkylation reactions of styrenes and 1‐phenyl‐1,3‐butadienes that delivers the corresponding linear hydroaminoalkylation products with excellent regioselectivities.
