- Carbon dioxide-based facile synthesis of cyclic carbamates from amino alcohols
-
We report herein a straightforward general method for the synthesis of cyclic carbamates from amino alcohols and carbon dioxide in the presence of an external base and a hydroxyl group activating reagent. Utilizing p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (TsCl), the reaction proceeds under mild conditions, and the approach is fully applicable to the preparation of various high value-added 5- and 6-membered rings as well as bicyclic fused ring carbamates. DFT calculations and experimental results indicate a SN2-type reaction mechanism with high regio-, chemo-, and stereoselectivity.

- Conversion of Carbon Dioxide into Oxazolidinones Mediated by Quaternary Ammonium Salts and DBU
-
A straightforward method to construct oxazolidinones through a three-component reaction involving CO2, epoxides, and amines promoted by a combination of Bu4NI and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene was developed. A wide range of aromatic and aliphatic amines and monosubstituted epoxides were converted into 3,5-disubstituted-2-oxazolidines in up to 95 % yield. This metal-free and easily available catalytic system was applicable to a broad range of substrates, including conventionally challenging ones such as aliphatic epoxides, at atmospheric pressure. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggested a reaction pathway involving β-amino alcohols.

- Transformation of Carbon Dioxide into Oxazolidinones and Cyclic Carbonates Catalyzed by Rare-Earth-Metal Phenolates
-
Rare-earth-metal complexes stabilized by amine-bridged tri(phenolato) ligands were developed, and their activities in catalyzing transformations of CO2 were studied. A series of terminal epoxides and challenging disubstituted epoxides were converted into the respective cyclic carbonates in the presence of CO2 in yields of 58 to 96 %. In addition, these rare-earth-metal complexes also showed good activities in catalyzing three-component reactions of anilines, epoxides, and CO2, which generated 5-substituted-3-aryl-2-oxazolidines in yields of 48 to 96 %, as a useful strategy to construct oxazolidinones.

- Copper-Catalyzed One-Pot Synthesis of N -Aryl Oxazolidinones from Amino Alcohol Carbamates
-
An efficient sequential intramolecular cyclization of amino alcohol carbamates followed by Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling with aryl iodides under mild conditions has been developed. The reaction occurred in good yields and tolerated aryl iodides containing functionalities such as nitriles, ketones, ethers, and halogens. Heteroaryl iodides and substituted amino alcohol carbamates were also well tolerated.
