Abstract The iodinatied carbamates 3 (E+ Z), with potential β-blocking properties, were synthesized. The first route chosen, from 4-aminophenol and the chloroformate β7, had to be abandoned because of the formation of the oxazolidinone 10 during the epoxidation step. The aminoalcohol 17 prepared from the practolol 1 finally gave the target compounds by condensation with the iodoallylic chloroformates 8 (E+ Z). The secondary Boc-protected ...
