A Metal‐Free Synthesis of N‐Aryl Carbamates under Ambient Conditions

Abstract: The first chemo- and site-selective process for the formation of N-aryl-carbamates from cyclic organic carbonates and aromatic amines is reported. The reactions proceed smoothly under extremely mild reaction conditions using TBD (triazabicyclodecene) as an effective and cheap organocatalyst, thus providing a sustainable and new methodology for the formation of a wide variety of useful N-aryl carbamate synthons in good to excellent yields. Computational investigations have been performed and show the underlying reason for the observed unique reactivity as related to an effective proton-relay mechanism mediated by the bicyclic guanidine base.

Rearrangement of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ring systems by titanocene alkylidene complexes to bicyclo[3.2.0]heptane enol ethers. Total synthesis of (±)-Δ^(9(12))-capnellene

Abstract: A variety of ester-substituted norbornenes react with titanamethylene complex (Tebbe's reagent) to yield stable titanacyclobutanes. Endo esters do not react with the reagent in competition with the norbornene double bond. The X-ray structure of the metallacycle formed from titanacene methylene complex and 1-methylbicyclo[2.2.l]hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid diisopropyl ester was determined. On heating, the metallacycle rearranged to a carbene-olefin complex. The ratio of productive opening, cleavage of the bicycloheptane ring system, to nonproductive opening, regeneration of the starting materials, is controlled by a variety of steric factors that were studied and analyzed. The productive opening was detected by the formation of the product resulting from the intramolecular trapping of the intermediate titanium alkylidene by the endo ester functionality in a Wittig-like reaction to yield substituted bicyclo[3.2.0]heptenes. Rearrangement of the titanacycle formed from 4,4-dimethyltricyclo[ 5.2.1.0^(1,5)]dec-8-ene-6-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester yielded 10,10-dimethyl-3-methoxy-7- vinyltricyclo[5.3.0.0^(2,5)]dec-2-ene, which was transformed into Δ ^(9(12))-capnellene in good yield.
