Abstract

A facile and practical removal of 2-oxazolidinone and 2-hydroxyethylamine auxiliaries was accomplished by treating the corresponding N-acyl-2-oxazolidinone and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)amide derivatives in simple methoxide-carbonate systems. The presence of excess DMC (dimethyl carbonate) accelerates the N-acyl bond cleavage for those substrates under mild reaction conditions, and the present method was found to be useful especially for the synthesis of planar-chiral nicotinate.
