Sumario:	The article presents a study which offers a computational and synthetic assessment of heavier group 2 metals and intermolecular hydroamination. The study utilized a density functional theory (DFT) that aims to highlight the intrinsic reaction barriers in the catalytic mechanism. The results of the study support rate-determining alkene insertion that occurred inside a catalytic cycle dominated by Coulomb interactions.
