The potential catalytic activity of selected C,N-chelated organotin(IV) compounds (e.g. halides and trifluoroacetates) for derivatization of both dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and diethyl carbonate (DEC) was investigated. Some tri-, di- and monoorganotin(IV) species (LCN(n-Bu)2SnCl (1), LCN(n-Bu)2SnCl.HCl (1a), LCN(n-Bu) 2SnI (2), LCNPh2SnCl (3), LCNPh 2SnI (4), LCN(n-Bu)SnCl2 (5), L CNSnBr3 (6) and [LCNSn(OC(O)CF 3)]2(μ-O)(μ-OC(O)CF3)2 (7)) bearing the LCN moiety (LCN = 2-(N,N-dimethylaminomethyl) phenyl-) were assessed as catalysts for reactions of both DMC and DEC with various substituted anilines. The catalytic activities of 4 and 7 for derivatization of DMC with p-substituted phenols were studied for comparison with the standard base K2CO3/Silcarbon K835 catalyst (catalyst 8). The composition of resulting reaction mixtures was monitored by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, GC and GC-MS techniques. In general, catalysts 1, 3 and 7 exhibited the highest catalytic activity for all reactions studied, while some of them yielded selectively carbonates, carbamates, lactam or substituted urea.

Dimethyl carbonate as an ambident electrophile

(Chemical Equation Presented) The features of various anions having different soft/hard character (aliphatic and aromatic amines, alcohoxydes, phenoxides, thiolates) are compared with regard to nucleophilic substitutions on dimethyl carbonate (DMC), using different reaction conditions. Results are well in agreement with the Hard-Soft Acid-Base (HSAB) theory. Accordingly, the high selectivity of monomethylation of CH2 acidic compounds and primary aromatic amines with DMC can be explained by two different subsequent reactions, which are due to the double electrophilic character of DMC. The first step consists of a hard-hard reaction and selectively produces a soft anion, which, in the second phase, selectively transforms into the final monomethylated product, via a soft-soft nucleophilic displacement (yield >99% at complete conversion, using DMC as solvent).
