Abstract

Abstract Alkyl carbamate (such as 1) reacts with triphosgene at the nitrogen atom, whereas the analogous thionocarbamates (5) react at the sulfur. Subsequent treatment with various phenols or alcohols leads to the corresponding aryl carbamates or alkyl carbamates (6) respectively. The process thus involves both desulfurization and transesterification.
