25. 2 (< 0.2 equivalents) affords the corresponding α-hydroxy-β,γ-unsaturated amide unpurified with other compounds.
26. Starting from α,β-epoxyamides in which the oxirane is disubstituted this transformation did not takes place. In this case, 2-hydroxy-3-io-doamides are isolated (unpublished results).
