Reformatsky reagent, benzylzinc bromide or alkylzinc iodides react with aryl isocyanates directly to give corresponding N-substituted carbamates under mild reaction conditions. However, the reaction of allylzinc bromide or propargylzinc bromide with aryl isocyanates produces the corresponding N-substituted amides. The reactions provide alternative methods for the synthesis of N-substituted carbamates or amides.

A general mechanism is proposed for transition metal-catalyzed oxidative Mannich reactions of N,N-dialkylanilines with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant. The mechanism consists of a rate-determining single electron transfer (SET) that is uniform from 4-methoxy- to 4-cyano-N,N-dimethylanilines. The tert-butylperoxy radical is the major oxidant in the rate-determining SET step that is followed by competing backward SET and irreversible heterolytic cleavage of the carbon-hydrogen bond at the α-position to nitrogen. A second SET completes the conversion of N,N-dimethylaniline to an iminium ion that is subsequently trapped by the nucleophilic solvent or the oxidant prior to formation of the Mannich adduct. The general role of Rh2(cap) 4, RuCl2(PPh3)3, CuBr, FeCl 3, and Co(OAc)2 in N,N-dialkylaniline oxidations by T-HYDRO is to initiate the conversion of TBHP to tert-butylperoxy radicals. A second pathway, involving O2 as the oxidant, exists for copper, iron, and cobalt salts. Results from linear free-energy relationship (LFER) analyses, kinetic and product isotope effects (KIE and PIE), and radical trap experiments of N,N-dimethylaniline oxidation by T-HYDRO in the presence of transition metal catalysts are discussed. Kinetic studies of the oxidative Mannich reaction in methanol and toluene are also reported.
Multilevel selectivity in the mild and high-yielding chlorosilane- induced cleavage of carbamates to isocyanates

The silane-induced cleavage of a series of N-p-tolylcarbamates and N- phenethylcarbamates to isocyanates has been investigated as a function of chlorosilane, carbamate substituent, and reaction conditions. Reaction yields were determined from the isolated ureas, which were formed by trapping the corresponding isocyanates with isobutylamine. Under room-temperature conditions, multilevel selectivity in carbamate activation has been demonstrated. This selectivity together with the generality of the methodology enhances the utility of carbamates as synthetic intermediates and protecting groups. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this selectivity, a series of biscarbamates were selectively monoactivated to isocyanates in excellent yields.
