HBF4·OEt2: An efficient fluorinated acid catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of secondary and tertiary N-homoallylic carbamates
摘要:
An efficient method for the one-pot synthesis of secondary and tertiary N-homoallylic carbamates using catalytic amount of HBF4 center dot OEt2 is described. The reaction proceeded smoothly to afford the corresponding N-homoallylic carbamates in good to high yields. Operationally simple and easily scalable features make this method more practical over existing methods. Use of HBF4 center dot OEt2 as an acid catalyst also proves the catalytic activity of fluorinated acid catalyst in this important organic transformation. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
