title: Rhodium-catalyzed intermolecular C-H amination of simple hydrocarbons using the shelf-stable nonafluorobutanesulfonyl azide.
abstract: A new procedure has been developed for the direct intermolecular C-H amination of simple hydrocarbons using shelf-stable nonafluorobutanesulfonyl azide in the presence of a dirhodium(II) tetracarboxylate catalyst under mild reaction conditions. Some mechanistic details are briefly discussed on the basis of control experiments.
