CAS 2694872-01-8, Cat. No EN300-39868153
Reagent for photochemical aminocarboxylation

Methyl 2-[[(diphenylmethylene)amino]oxy]-2-oxoacetate

The reagent provides a straightforward synthetic route for the synthesis of a wide range of β-amino acid derivatives1. The reaction employs a metal-free, photochemically-induced, highly regioselective intermolecular aminocarboxylation of alkenes or (hetero)arenes. This mild method is notable for its broad substrate scope and excellent tolerance of sensitive functional groups.

Synonyms: (diphenylmethylidene)amino methyl oxalate
