Iron(<scp>ii</scp>)-chloride-catalyzed regioselective azidation of allenamides with TMSN₃

Abstract

. This process is highly regio- and stereoselective, affording (E)-allyl azides in good to excellent yields. Due to the versatility of the azide group, these products can be transformed in situ to allyl triazoles and allyl amines, facilitating numerous subsequent chemical modifications.
