Pictet–Spengler reactions in multiphasic supercritical carbon dioxide/CO2-expanded liquid media. In situ generation of carbamates as a strategy for reactions of amines in supercritical carbon dioxide

Abstract

Acyl-Pictet-Spengler cyclizations can be achieved in scCO2/CO2-expanded liquid media via the in situ formation of carbamate derivatives of beta-arylethylamines.
