Abstract

Sir: We have reported that imido selenium compounds (1) effect allylic amination of olefins, l and thus mimic the well-known allylic oxygenation of olefins by selenium dioxide (2). We have now discovered that the analogous sulfur imido compounds (3) 2 are also excellent reagents for the al- 5 6 7
