title: Silicon-directed rhenium-catalyzed allylic substitutions with N-hydroxycarbamates, N-hydroxysulfonamides, and hydroxamic acids.
abstract: A rhenium-catalyzed N-selective allylic amination reaction of N-hydroxycarbamates has been developed. This reaction occurs with excellent N/O selectivity and with complete carbon selectivity on the allylic system. The reaction is tolerant of many functional groups and also proceeds with N-hydroxysulfonamides and hydroxamic acids.
