A general study of the iron-catalyzed reaction of urea with nucleophiles is here presented. The carbamoylation of alcohols allows for the synthesis of N-unsubstituted (primary) carbamates, including present drugs (Felbamate and Meprobamat, without the necessity to apply phosgene and related derivatives. Using amines as nucleophiles gave rise to the respective mono-and disubstituted ureas via selective transamidation reaction. These atom-economical transformations provide a direct and selective access to valuable compounds from cheap and readily available urea using a simple Lewis-acidic iron(Icatalyst.
Copper-catalyzed intramolecular C-H amination

The amino-functionalization of tertiary, secondary and benzylic C-H bonds of tethered carbamates and sulfamates by iodosobenzene is catalyzed by Cu I-diimine complexes in moderate to good yield. Employing homochiral imine-Cucatalysts affords oxazolidinones and oxathiazinanes with modest enantioselectivity.
