Studies on the Regioselective and Diastereoselective Amination using Chlorosulfonyl Isocyanate (CSI)

We have recently described the novel synthetic method for N-protected amines from various ethers using chlorosulfonyl isocyanate(CSI) and found that the mechanism of our CSI reaction is a competitive reaction of SN1 and SNi mechanism according to the stability of carbocation intermediate. Forthermore. we developed the regioselective and diastereoselective one-pot synthetic method for 1,2-amino alcohol, through the reaction of di-and tribenzyl thers with CSI, and invetigated its mechanism.
