Abstract
BF3·Et2O promotes an interrupted Schmidt rearrangement/Hosomi-Sakurai reaction of N-tosyl vinyl azides via denitrogenative fragmentation, generation of a stabilized carbocation, which further undergoes nucleophilic addition by allyl/propargylsilanes for C-C bond formation. The reaction provides various homoallylic/allenylic amines in good yields under mild reaction conditions with well-defined functional-group tolerance.
