A photocatalyzed oxidative decarboxylation of oxamic acids enables a facile
one-pot synthesis of urethanes. The process involves the formation of an
isocyanate in situ from an oxamic acid under blue-light irradiation in the
presence of ferrocene as a photocatalyst, 2-picolinic acid as a ligand, and
potassium bromate as an oxidant. The method avoids the need for handling
carcinogenic isocyanates.
