• tetrasubstituted enamines has not been carried out before. The use of green, non-toxic and renewable solvent (R)-limonene is introduced here as a potentially promising solvent for amine synthesis. This solvent could prove a particularly useful green solvent for any reaction that involved an aqueous/organic work-up
