Abstract
[reaction: see text] The N-chloramine salt of tert-butylsulfonamide has been shown to be an efficient nitrogen source and the terminal oxidant for catalytic aminohydroxylation and aziridination of olefins, resembling closely Chloramine-T by its behavior in these catalytic reactions. The sulfonyl-nitrogen bond in the product or its derivatives is easily cleaved under mild acidic conditions, allowing for facile liberation of the amino group.
