26. No other products of C-H amination were observed; the mass balance in these experiments consisted of the isomeric N-sulfonylated amides, analogous to the products of Aubé's copper(I)-catalyzed rearrangements of oxaziridines. See: Aubé, J. Chem. Soc. Rev. 1997, 26, 269.
27. Attempts to perform aminations of primary and tertiary C-H bonds have not been successful. We attribute these results to the greater bond strength of primary C-H bonds and the congested steric environment of tertiary C-H bonds.
