Abstract
The reaction of O-tert-butyl-N-(chloromethyl)-N-methyl carbamate (1) with lithium powder and a catalytic amount of 4, 4′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl (DTBB, 2.5 mol%) in the presence of different electrophiles [Me3SiCl, iBuCHO, tBuCHO, PhCHO, 4-MeOC6H4CHO,(CH2) 4CO, MeCOnPr, Et2CO, MeCO (CH2) 2CH CH2, PhCOMe, PhCOnBu, Ph2CO] in THF at− 78° C leads, after hydrolysis with water, to the expected functionalised carbamates 2. ...
