Base-Catalyzed Transcarbamoylation
Authors
Vincent Semetey, Benoît Rhoné
Abstract
Inorganic bases such as NaH, KOt-Bu, NaOH, or KOH are efficient catalysts to promote the transcarbamoylation reaction between urethanes and a variety of primary and secondary alcohols under mild conditions. They constitute an alternative to organometallic catalysis and can be applied to aliphatic or aromatic urethanes.
