N,N-dialkyl ethylamine moiety can be found in numerous scaffolds of macromolecules, catalysts, and especially pharmaceuticals. Common synthetic procedures for its incorporation in a substrate relies on the use of a nitrogen mustard gas or on multistep syntheses featuring chlorine hazardous/toxic chemistry. Reported herein is a one-pot synthetic approach for the easy introduction of aminoalkyl chain into different phenolic substrates through dialkyl carbonate (β-aminocarbonate) chemistry. This new direct alcohol substitution avoids the use of chlorine chemistry, and it is efficient on numerous pharmacophore scaffolds with good to quantitative yield. The cytotoxicity via MTT of the β-aminocarbonate, key intermediate of this synthetic approach, was also evaluated and compared with its alcohol precursor.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A wide range of diaryl ethers and alkyl aryl ethers are synthesized through intermolecular C(aryl)-O bond formation from the corresponding aryl iodides/aryl bromides and phenols/alcohols through Ullmann-type coupling reaction in the presence of a catalytic amount of easily available (±)-diol L3-CuI complex under very mild reaction conditions. Less reactive aryl bromides can also be used for O-arylation of phenols under the same reaction conditions without increasing the reaction temperature, catalyst loading, and time. The catalytic system not only is capable of coupling hindered substrate but also tolerates a broad range of a series of functional groups.

Etherification of phenols with dimethyl- and diethylsulfates and benzyl chloride was performed efficiently in the presence of a suitable solid base, NaHCO3 or K2CO3, under solvent-free conditions. The reaction proceeded rapidly at low temperature, and the corresponding ethers were obtained with high purity and excellent yield. Selective etherification of electron-poor phenols in the presence of electron-rich ones and also selective mono-etherification of bisphenols are the noteworthy advantages of this method. This method is environmentally friendly. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
