Abstract

A simple one-pot conversion of carboxylic acids to carbamates is achieved by propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P®) in combination with azidotrimethylsilane and an alcohol via the Curtius­ rearrangement. Besides diverse primary to tertiary alcohols, the reaction tolerated a wide scope of aromatic, heterocyclic, and ­aliphatic carboxylic acids which underwent rearrangement in ­excellent yields.

Key words

propylphosphonic anhydride - Curtius rearrangement - carbamates - peptide coupling agents - azidotrimethylsilane

The enantiomeric excess was determined by SFC (supercritical-fluid chromatography) using a Chiracel OD column. There was no erosion of the enantiomeric excess during the process and a difference of 1% ee is within the experimental error.
