Abstract

Novel solution and solid-phase methods for the synthesis of carbonates and carbamates were developed using cesium bases and TBAI via a three-component coupling. Cesium carbonate not only promoted successful carbonylations of alcohols and carbamations of amines, but also suppressed common side reactions traditionally seen using existing protocols. Various alcohols and amines were examined, using a wide array of alkyl ...
