Nickel‐Catalyzed Synthesis of Enamides and Enecarbamates <i>via</i> Isomerization of Allylamides and Allylcarbamates

Abstract

Abstract A single‐component, air‐stable nickel precatalyst can catalyze the isomerization of allylamides for the synthesis of enamides. The scope of the reaction encompasses various substituted allylamides and allylcarbamates as well as homoallylamides. The reaction can be performed on a multigram‐scale without specialized glove‐box equipment or Schlenk techniques. magnified image
