A regioselective introduction of functional groups to the double bonds of allylic and homoallylic alcohols via the corresponding trichloroacetimidates

Abstract
A new regioselective iodoamination reaction starting from allylic and homoallylic alcohols is described; the iodoaminoalcohols are obtained as the salts (2) and (4)via the corresponding 1,3-oxazolines (1) and dihydro-1,3-oxazines (3).
