14. General procedure for preparation of compounds 4: To a
solution containing the N-p-toluenesulphonyl carbamates
6a–f (5 mmol) in DCM (20 ml), DABCO (0.11 g; 1 mmol)
was added and the mixture was stirred for 12 h at rt. Then
the mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (150 ml) and the
organic layer washed with 1 M HCl (30 ml) and brine (100
ml). After drying (Na2SO4), the solvents were removed
under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by
silica gel chromatography (cyclohexane:ethyl acetate 80:20
as eluant), to give pure isolated 4a–f.
18. General procedure for preparation of compounds 5: To a
solution containing the N-acyl carbamates (9) (5 mmol) in
DCM (20 ml), DABCO (0.11 g; 1 mmol) was added and
the mixture was stirred for 12 h at rt. Then the mixture was
diluted with ethyl acetate (150 ml) and the organic layer
washed with 1 M HCl (30 ml) and brine (100 ml). After
drying (Na2SO4), the solvents were removed under
reduced pressure and the residue purified by silica gel
chromatography (cyclohexane:ethyl acetate 80:20 as elu-
ant), to give pure isolated 5.
