title: Amination of Diazocarbonyl Compounds: N-H Insertion under Metal-Free Conditions.
abstract: Transition-metal-free intermolecular N-H insertion of α-diazocarbonyl compounds is reported. Among the series of nitrogen sources examined, dibenzenesulfonimide was found to be the choice in terms of the yields and the reaction time. Primary mechanistic experiments suggest that a pathway involving a sequence of protonation and nucleophilic substitution was preferred.
