Abstract
N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) and hexabromoacetone (Br3CCOCBr3) were found to be new and efficient catalysts for the chemoselective N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of aliphatic and aromatic amines. This novel, simple, and effective method for the preparation of N-Boc protected products proceeds in good to excellent yields with short reaction times at room temperature.
