SYNTHESIS OF MULTIVALENT CARBONATE ESTERS BY DIVERGENT GROWTH OF BRANCHED CARBAMATES

DS Jones, ME Tedder, CA Gamino, JR Hammaker and HT Ton-Nu. La Jolla Pharmaceutical Company, San Diego, CA.

Multivalent 4-nitrophenyl (PNP)-carbonate esters were prepared from carbonate ester-containing core groups by a new divergent-growth process. The process doubles the number of PNP-carbonate esters with each round of growth, or branching, which occurs by reacting an N,N-dihydroxylalkyl amine with a PNP-carbonate ester. The resulting N,N-dihydroxyalkyl carbamate contains two hydroxy groups for each original PNP-cabonate ester. The hydroxyl groups are converted in situ to PNP-carbonate esters, and the process can be repeated to provide successive generations of dendrimer-like branched structures of increased valence.
