Abstract
AbstractThe commercially available alkaline earth‐metal compound MgnBu2 can act as a highly efficient pre‐catalyst under mild conditions for the catalytic addition of alcohols to carbodiimides. To the best of our knowledge, it has not been reported in alkaline earth‐metal catalyzing reactions. A possible mechanistic pathway is proposed based on the stoichiometric experiments and the previously published literature.
