DBU‐Promoted Nucleophilic Activation of Carbonic Acid Diesters

Abstract The reactivity of carbonic acid diesters in the presence of the amidine base DBU (1,8‐diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec‐7‐ene) has been investigated for the first time. Organic carbonates can be activated by DBU through the formation of N ‐alkoxycarbonyl ketene aminal 2 as the ultimate product. The...
