4-Propylcatechol carbonate is a shelf-stable, renewable C1 reactant. It is easily prepared from renewable 4-propylcatechol (derived from wood) and dimethyl carbonate (derived from CO2) using a reactive distillation system. In this work, the 4-propylcatechol carbonate is used for the two-step synthesis of carbamates under mild reaction conditions. In the first step, 4-propylcatechol carbonate is treated with an alcohol at 50–80 °C in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst, such as Zn(OAc)2?2 H2O. With liquid alcohols, no solvent is used and with solid alcohols 2-methyltetrahydrofuran is used as solvent. In the second step, the alkyl 2-hydroxy-propylphenyl carbonate intermediates obtained react with amines at room temperature in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, forming the target carbamates and the byproduct 4-propylcatechol, which can be recycled into a carbonate reactant.

A simple, green and chemo-selective method for the N-benzyloxycarbonylation of amines, β-amino alcohols, α-amino esters and sulfonamides has been developed under microwave irradiation. Good to excellent yields of the N-benzyloxy-carbamates compounds were obtained in short times without any side products.

An efficient, solvent-free protocol for the N-fluorenylmethoxycarbonylation and N-benzyloxycarbonylation of amines is described. The reaction of aliphatic and aromatic amines with FmocOSu and Cbz-Osu in [Bmim][BF4] at room temperature afforded the corresponding N-urethane derivatives in excellent yields and do not require any further purification. The method has been extended to the N-Fmoc and N-Cbz protection of amino acids. Absence of bases, very short reaction times, high yields, selectivity and ease of product separation are some advantages of this protocol.

A kinetic study is reported for nucleophilic substitution reactions of benzyl 2-pyridyl thionocarbonate (5b) and t-butyl 2-pyridyl thionocarbonate (6b) with a series of alicyclic secondary amines in H2O at 25.0 °C. Generalbase catalysis, which has often been reported to occur for aminolysis of esters possessing a C=S electrophilic center, is absent for the reactions of 5b and 6b. The Bronsted-type plots for the reactions of 5b and 6b are linear with ssnuc = 0.29 and 0.43, respectively, indicating that the reactions of 5b proceed through a stepwise mechanism with formation of a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate (T±) being the rate-determining step while those of 6b proceed through a concerted mechanism. The reactivity of 5b and 6b is similar to that of their oxygen analogues (i.e., benzyl 2-pyridyl carbonate 5a and t-butyl 2-pyridyl carbonate 6a, respectively), indicating that the effect of modification of the electrophilic center from C=O to C=S (i.e., from 5a to 5b and from 6a to 6b) on reactivity is insignificant. In contrast, 6b is much less reactive than 5b, indicating that the replacement of the PhCH2 in 5b by the t-Bu in 6b results in a significant decrease in reactivity as well as a change in the reaction mechanism (i.e., from a stepwise mechanism to a concerted pathway). It has been concluded that the contrasting reactivity and reaction mechanism for the reactions of 5b and 6b are not due to the electronic effects of PhCH2 and t-Bu but are caused by the large steric hindrance exerted by the bulky t-Bu in 6b.

A kinetic study is reported for nucleophilic substitution reactions of benzyl 4-pyridyl carbonate 6 with a series of alicyclic secondary amines in MeCN. The plot of pseudo-first-order rate constant (kobsd) vs. [amine] curves upward, which is typical for reactions reported previously to proceed through a stepwise mechanism with two intermediates (i.e., a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate T± and its deprotonated form T-). Dissection of kobsd into the second-and third-order rate constants (i.e., Kk2 and Kk3, respectively) reveals that Kk3 is significantly larger than Kk2, indicating that the reactions proceed mainly through the deprotonation pathway (i.e., the k3 process) in a high [amine] region. This contrasts to the recent report that the corresponding aminolysis of benzyl 2-pyridyl carbonate 5 proceeds through a forced concerted mechanism. An intramolecular H-bonding interaction was suggested to force the reactions of 5 to proceed through a concerted mechanism, since it could accelerate the rate of leaving-group expulsion (i.e., an increase in k2). However, such H-bonding interaction, which could increase k2, is structurally impossible for the reactions of 6. Thus, presence or absence of an intramolecular H-bonding interaction has been suggested to be responsible for the contrasting reaction mechanisms (i.e., a forced concerted mechanism for the reaction of 5 vs. a stepwise mechanism with T± and T-as intermediates for that of 6).

Second-order rate constants (kN) have been measured spectrophotometrically for the reactions of benzyl 2- pyridyl carbonate 3 and t-butyl 2-pyridyl carbonate 4 with a series of alicyclic secondary amines in MeCN at 25.0 ± 0.1 ° C. Substrate 4 is much less reactive than 3 and the steric hindrance exerted by the bulky t-Bu group in 4 has been attributed to its decreased reactivity. The Bronsted-type plots for the reactions of 3 and 4 are linear with ssnuc = 0.57 and 0.45, respectively. Thus, the reactions have been concluded to proceed through a concerted mechanism, although the current reactions were expected to proceed through a stepwise mechanism with a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate T±. It has been proposed that the rate of leaving-group expulsion is accelerated by the intramolecular H-bonding interaction in T± and the "push" provided by the RO group through the resonance interaction. Thus, the enhanced nucleofugality forces the reactions to proceed through a concerted mechanism. The reactivity-selectivity principle (RSP) is not applicable to the current reaction systems, since the reaction of the less reactive 4 results in a smaller ssnuc than that of the more reactive 3. Steric hindrance exerted by the bulky t-Bu group in 4 has been suggested to be responsible for the failure of the RSP. Copyright

An efficient and eco-friendly protocol for the chemoselective N-benzyloxycarbonylation of amines was described.
