The O- to C-carboxyl transfer of oxazolyl carbonates promoted by triazolinylidenes, generated in situ with NEt3, shows a markedly different rate and chemoselectivity profile to the same reaction promoted by triazolinylidenes generated using KHMDS. The mechanism of these pathways has been probed through extensive crossover studies to understand this process. The use of NEt3 as a base allows domino multi-step
由NEt 3原位产生的由三唑啉亚基促进的碳酸恶唑基碳酸酯的O - C羧基转移与由KHMDS生成的三唑啉亚基促进的相同反应显示出明显不同的速率和化学选择性。通过广泛的交叉研究探索了这些途径的机制,以了解这一过程。尽管手性NHC在这些多米诺反应过程中仅产生适度水平的不对称诱导(<15%ee),但使用NEt 3作为碱基可以开发出多米诺骨牌多步反应序列。
