Base-Promoted Coupling of Carbon Dioxide, Amines, and N-Tosylhydrazones: A Novel and Versatile Approach to Carbamates

摘要

A base-promoted three-component coupling of carbon dioxide, amines, and N-tosylhydrazones has been developed. The reaction is suggested to proceed via a carbocation intermediate and constitutes an efficient and versatile approach for the synthesis of a wide range of organic carbamates. The advantages of this method include the use of readily available substrates, excellent functional group tolerance, wide substrate scope, and a facile work-up procedure.
