Amines benzyl carbamates

Alkyl esters are efficiently dealkylated to trimethylsilyl esters with high concentrations of iodotrimethylsilane either in chloroform or sulfolane solutions at 25-80° or without solvent at 100-110°.Hydrolysis of the trimethylsilyl esters serves to release the carboxylic acid. Amines may be recovered from O-methyl, O-ethyl, and O-benzyl carbamates after reaction with iodotrimethylsilane in chloroform or sulfolane at 50—60° and subsequent methanolysis. The conversion of dimethyl, diethyl, and ethylene acetals and ketals to the parent aldehydes and ketones under aprotic conditions has been accomplished with this reagent. The reactions of alcohols (or the corresponding trimethylsilyl ethers) and aldehydes with iodotrimethylsilane give alkyl iodides and a-iodosilyl ethers,respectively. lodomethyl methyl ether is obtained from cleavage of dimethoxymethane with iodotrimethylsilane. 

The immobilized carbamates (40 pmol) were transferred to a sealable 96-well Weflon plate, and admixed with 10 pmol each of various primary or secondary amines dissolved in 400 iL of anhydrous toluene. After sealing, the plate was irradiated in a multimode microwave instrument, first generating a ramp to reach 130 °C within 45 min and then holding this temperature for an additional 15 min. After cooling, the resins were filtered with the aid of a liquid handler and the filtrates were concentrated to obtain the desired substituted ureas in good purity and reasonable yields. Anilines reacted rather sluggishly and 2-substituted benzyl carbamates afforded somewhat inferior results. 

Iodine is known to catalyze the condensation of aldehydes, benzyl carbamate and allyltrimethylsilane to homoallylic amines. However, in this case the involvement of an in sitn prepared [MejSi] species was suggested to be the active catalyst [235], An iodine catalyzed acetalization of carbonyl compounds was reported, where the active catalyst was believed to be hydroiodic acid [236],... 

Notes An important functional group for protecting amines as carbamates and alcohols as benzyl carbonates. Notable for the protection of amino acids during peptide synthesis. 

The condensation of an aldehyde, benzyl carbamate, and triphenyl phosphite, first described by Oleksyszyn et al., 25,26 affords a direct route to a-aminoalkylphosphonates 4 that are conveniently protected for subsequent reactions (Scheme 4). Since dealkylation of the quaternary phosphonium intermediate 3 is not possible in this case, formation of the pen-tavalent product 4 presumably involves activation of the solvent and formation of phenyl acetate. This method is useful for the synthesis of aliphatic and aromatic amino acid analogues. However, monomers with more elaborate side chains are often incompatible with the reaction conditions. The free amine can be liberated by treatment with HBr/AcOH or by hydrogenolysis after removal of the phenyl esters. The phosphonate moiety can be manipulated by ready exchange of the phenyl esters in alkaline MeOH and activation as described in Section 10.10.2.1.1. Related condensations with other trivalent phosphite derivatives have been reported. 27-30 ...

Koizumi and co-workers used the optically active allylic chloroselenuranes bearing the 2-exo-hydroxyl-10-bornyl group to obtain optically active allylic amines [41]. The treatment of allylic selenides with f-BuOCl gave the corresponding allylic chloroselenuranes as the only product. Benzyl carbamate, t-butyl carbamate, p-tosylamide, and diphenylphosphinamide were selected as the AT-protected amines for selenimide formation. The nucleophilic reaction of...
