This paper reports that tertiary α-azidyl phenyl ketones can be transformed into enamides by treatment with FeBr2 at elevated temperature in DMF. The reaction proceeds via 1,2-benzoyl migration from α-carbon to the nitrogen atom, accompanied by expulsion of a nitrogen molecule. This protocol is suitable for the synthesis of N-(cyclopent-1-en-1-yl)benzamides, N-(cyclohex-1-en-1-yl)benzamides, and N-benzoyl-α-methyl enamines and provides a convenient approach toward isoquinolones.

A highly enantioselective acyloin rearrangement of cyclic α-ketols has been developed with a chiral Al(III)-N,N′-dioxide complex as catalyst. This strategy provided an array of optically active 2-acyl-2-hydroxy cyclohexanones in moderate to good yields with high enantioselectivities. The asymmetric isomerizations of acyclic α-hydroxy aldehydes and α-iminols were achieved as well under modified conditions, affording the corresponding chiral α-hydroxy ketones and α-amino ketones in moderate results. Moreover, further transformations of product to enantioenriched diols were carried out.
