O-tert-butyl-N-(chloromethyl)-N-methyl carbamate as a source of the MeNHCH2- synthon
Guijarro, Albert,Ortiz, Javier,Yus, Miguel
, p. 5597 - 5600 (1996)
The reaction of O-tert-butyl-N-(chloromethyl)-N-methyl carbamate (1) with lithium powder and a catalytic amount of DTBB (2.5 mol %) in the presence of different electrophiles [Me3SiCl, Bu(i)CHO, Bu(t)CHO, PhCHO, (CH2)4CO, Et2CO, PhCOMe, Ph2CO] in THF at -78°C leads, after hydrolysis with water, to the expected functionalised carbamates 2. As an example, the hydrolysis of compound 2e with hydrogen chloride affords easy deprotection of the amine functionality yielding the corresponding 1,2-aminoalcohol 3e.
Enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes catalyzed by monosubstituted [2.2]paracyclophane-based N,O-ligands: remarkable cooperative effects of planar and central chiralities

Diastereomeric monosubstituted [2.2]paracyclophane-based N,O-ligands, which unite the planar and central chiral elements, were optimized for the enantioselective diethylzinc addition to aldehydes. (S)-1-{(Sp)-[2.2]Paracyclophan-4-yl}methyl-2-pyrrolidine-α,α-diphenylmethanol (Sp,S)-3 catalyzed the addition to give (R)-1-phenyl-1-propanol in a high yield and with a good enantioselectivity (91% ee).
α-Aminated methyllithium by DTBB-catalysed lithiation of a N- (chloromethyl) carbamate
Ortiz, Javier,Guijarro, Albert,Yus, Miguel
, p. 4831 - 4842 (2007/10/03)
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, (i)BuCHO, (t)BuCHO, PhCHO, 4-MeOC6H4CHO, (CH2)4CO, MeCO(n)Pr, Et2CO, MeCO(CH2)2CH=CH2, PhCOMe, PhCO(n)Bu, Ph2CO] in THF at -78°C leads, after hydrolysis with water, to the expected functionalised carbamates 2. Carbamates 2 derived from carbonyl compounds are deprotected with hydrogen chloride (for aromatic aldehyde or ketone derivatives) or with a mixture of phenol and trimethylsilyl chloride (for aliphatic aldehyde derivatives) giving substituted 1,2-diols 4.
