Akin to the dihydroxylation, the oxyamination involves the cycloaddition of the alkene to an imido Os(VIII) intermediate of the type OsO3(NR). Such species are generated by treatment of osmium tetroxide with the sodium chloramines. Typical procedures combine chloramine-T, alkene, an osmium catalyst, and a chiral ligand.[2] Related procedures use benzyl carbamate (CbzNH2), sodium hydroxide, tert-butyl hypochlorite to give CbzNCl(Na).[3]
