Facile Synthesis of Carbamates via Base‐Promoted There‐Component Coupling of Aziridines with CO <sub>2</sub> and Amines

Carbamates represent an important class of organic compounds with wide applications. Traditional methods for their synthesis often rely on the use of phosgene and its derivatives. Herein, a base‐promoted three‐component coupling reaction between aziridines, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), and amines has been successfully developed for the first time, providing an efficient route to a range of structurally diverse and valuable carbamates in high yields with excellent regioselectivities. The metal‐free reaction features mild reaction conditions, high functional group tolerance, and wide substrate scope.

Abstract

Carbamates represent an important class of organic compounds with wide applications. Traditional methods for their synthesis often rely on the use of phosgene and its derivatives. Herein, a base‐promoted three‐component coupling reaction between aziridines, carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), and amines has been successfully developed for the first time, providing an efficient route to a range of structurally diverse and valuable carbamates in high yields with excellent regioselectivities. The metal‐free reaction features mild reaction conditions, high functional group tolerance, and wide substrate scope.
