Formamide CH bond activation has been achieved under oxidative conditions, using a copper catalyst and tert ‐butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the external oxidant (see scheme). This oxidative coupling of a range of dialkyl formamides provides an easy, phosgene‐free route for the selective synthesis of Z ‐enol carbamates and 2‐carbonyl‐substituted phenol carbamates in high yields.
