An external oxidant-free protocol for the generation of isocyanates from hydroxamic acids assisted by trivalent phosphine under mild electrochemical conditions was reported. The process started with the anodic oxidation of hydroxamic acids, followed by reacting with phosphine to form corresponding alkoxyphosphoniums and subsequent rearrangement with the release of tri-substituted phosphine oxide as the driving force to give isocyanates, which were trapped by N-based nucleophiles to produce various ureas. This method provides a broadly applicable procedure to access isocyanate intermediates under mild electrochemical conditions.

A one-pot synthesis of primary amines from carboxylic acids through a Lossen rearrangement of hydroxamic acid derivatives, which were in situ generated by the reaction of carboxylic acids with O-trimethylsilylhydroxylamine (NH2OTMS) and carbonyl diimidazole (CDI, 1.5 equiv) in dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature, has been achieved. This one-pot method could be applied to various carboxylic acids such as aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic, and optically active substrates.

[Chemical Equation Presented] Carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) was found to mediate the Lossen rearrangement of various hydroxamic acids to isocyanates. This process is experimentally simple and mild, with imidazole and CO 2 being the sole stoichiometric byproduct. Significant for large-scale application, the method avoids the use of hazardous reagents and thus represents a green alternative to standard processing conditions for the Curtius and Hofmann rearrangements.
