Abstract

A copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of amines with alkoxycarbonyl radicals generated from carbazates provides carbamates under mild conditions. This environmentally friendly approach is compatible with a wide range of amines, including aromatic/aliphatic and primary/secondary substrates.
