Why base-catalyzed isomerization of N-propargyl amides yields mostly allenamides rather than ynamides

The base-catalyzed isomerization of N-propargylamides or carbamates may furnish N-allenyl compounds (allenamides/allencarbamates) or further evolve to N-alkynyl compounds (ynamides or yncarbamates). The particular fate of this reaction varies from experiment to experiment and there is no clear rule...
