N to C Aryl Migration in Lithiated Carbamates: alpha-Arylation of Benzylic Alcohols
We report a new mode of reactivity displayed by lithiated O-benzyl carbamates carrying an N-aryl substituent: upon lithiation, the N-aryl group is transferred cleanly from N to C. An arylation of the carbamate results, providing a route to alpha,alpha-arylated secondary or tertiary alcohols. We also...
