29. The sequential Overman rearrangement of bistrichloroimidate 18 provided bistrichloroacetamide i in 92% yield.
30. Overman rearrangement of MOM-protected trichloroacetoimidate ii, which was synthesized from 16 in four steps, proceeded at lower temperature and much faster than the orthoamide version. As Danishefsky reported in ref 5b, we also observed that two diastereomers of orthoamide 19 underwent equilibration at room temperature.
