1,5-H transfers from carbon to N-tributyltin substituted nitrogen proceeded smoothly and were much more efficient than 1,5-H transfers from carbon to ordinary nitrogen. 1,5-Tribuyltin group transfer from carbon to nitrogen and intramolecular addition of an aminyl radical to a nitrile group were also observed for the first time.
