Ethyl Imidazole-1-carboxylate (EImC) as a Carbonylating Agent: Efficient Synthesis of Oxazolidin-2-ones from Amino Alcohols

Various substituted oxazolidin-2-ones were synthesized from the corresponding amino alcohols using ethyl imidazole-1-carboxylate (EImC). Highly substituted and sterically hindered amino alcohols an...
