Cover Story: The prevalence of ether and amine motifs in various areas of chemistry has driven the development of original and innovative methods for their efficient synthesis. The most attractive and atom-economical approach towards these prevalent motifs is undoubtedly the addition of N–H or O-H -bond onto unactivated alkenes—referred to as alkene hydroamination or hydroalkoxylation. The current booming trend for the use of earth-abundant, first-row late transition metals in catalysis has reshaped the field of alkene hydrofunctionalization and given birth to efficient strategies that not only rely on classical activation modes but also on novel radical-type reactivities. This review will survey the most relevant achievements in the field of the intra- and intermolecular hydroalkoxylation and hydroamination of unactivated alkenes promoted by earth-abundant 3D transition metal catalysts from manganese to zinc.
