Abstract
In this paper, a direct access to benzylic amines from in‐situ generated ortho‐quinone methides (o‐QMs) and isocyanate/isothiocyanate via decarboxylation is described. This base‐catalyzed methodology has high functional group tolerance and shows a wide range of substrate scopes, where H2O as a nucleophile for isocyanate/isothiocyanate for product formation. The products are insensitive to air and moisture, which makes this synthetic strategy more efficient for the construction of various benzyl amine derivatives.
期刊介绍:
Organic chemistry is the fundamental science that stands at the heart of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Research in these areas is vigorous and truly international, with three major regions making almost equal contributions: America, Europe and Asia. Asia now has its own top international organic chemistry journal—the Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry (AsianJOC)
The AsianJOC is designed to be a top-ranked international research journal and publishes primary research as well as critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers organic chemistry in its entirety. Authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories.
