Oxidative C-H amination of N-trichloroethoxysulfonyl-protected ureas and guanidines is demonstrated to proceed in high yield for tertiary and benzylic-derived substrates. The success of these reactions is predicated on the choice of the electron-withdrawn 2,2,2-trichloroethoxysulfonyl (Tces) protecting group, the commercial catalyst Rh-2(esp)(2) (1-2 mol %), and toluene as solvent. The frequency with which the heterocyclic imidazolidin-2-ones and 2-aminoimidazolines appear as structural elements in both natural products and therapeutically designed molecules confers these methods with a large number of potential applications.
