Abstract

Enantioselective transformation of allyl carbonates into branched allyl carbamates by using amines and recycling CO2 in the presence of an Ir complex and K3PO4 was accomplished. This provided branched allyl carbamates in fair to excellent yields with up to 98:2 regioselectivity and 93% ee. The role of CO2 in this transformation is discussed as well.
