Rh(III)-Catalyzed C–H Allylation of Aromatic Ketoximes with Vinylaziridines

The Rh(III)-catalyzed reaction of aromatic ketoximes with 2-vinylaziridines affords ortho-allylation products of the phenyl rings of aromatic ketoximes in moderate to excellent yields. The reaction requires 0.5 equiv of NaOAc as a base and occurs under mild conditions. The protocol exhibits ortho-monoallylation selectivity, wide scope of substrates, and good compatibility of functional groups.
