ammonium carbamates with trimethylchlorosilane. Trimethylsilyl NN-dimethylcarbamate can be used for silylation of alcohols,phenols, and carboxylicacids. The silycarbamates react with carboxylicacid halides to give the corresponding acide amides. The reaction of trimethylsilyl carbamates with carboxylicanhydrides give the corresponding silyl carboxylate and acid amide, while the reaction with dicarboxylic
