The diastereoselectivity of the Rh-catalyzed C-H amination was examined with 18 chiral open-chain substrates, which bear a benzylic methylene group in the alpha-position to a stereogenic center (-CHMeX), and with four chiral cyclic tetralins, in which the stereogenic center was positioned at carbon atom C2. The C-H amination was performed using trichloroethoxysulfonyl-substituted amine (H(2)NTces) as the nitrogen source, a diacyloxyiodobenzene as the oxidant, and bis[rhodium(alpha,alpha,alpha',alpha'-tetramethyl-1,3-benzenedipropionate)] [Rh-2(esp)(2)] as the catalyst. For acyclic substrates a high syn diastereoselectivity (dr > 95/5) was found if the substituent X was Br, PO(OEt)(2), SO2Ph, or CIOCCF3 (eight examples). Moderate to good syn selectivities (     «
