30. The retention of absolute configuration in the rhodium-catalyzed allylic amination was assigned by the comparison of (R)-2f prepared from (A)-1f (Scheme 1) with (S)-2f prepared via Mitsunobu inversion of the allylic alcohol (R)-1f́ with N-4-methoxybenzenesulfonyl toluidine. equation presented

32. Although β-branching is tolerated, α-branching leads to significantly reduced secondary selectivity. The allylic animation of the isopropyl derived allylic carbonate I furnished the allylic animation products II/III as a 1:2 mixture favoring the primary product III. equation presented
