Abstract

Abstract The copper-catalyzed coupling of aromatic boronic acids with potassium cyanate in the presence of an alcohol has been employed for the synthesis of arylcarbamates. This simple and highly efficient approach can be carried out in air at room temperature and, importantly, no base, ligand, or additive is required.
