ABSTRACT
A convenient and efficient procedure is described for the sulfamoylation of alcohols using N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-[(triethylenediammonium)sulfonyl]azanide (1). The ambient temperature stable reagent 1 reacts with phenols as well as primary and secondary alcohols to give high to modest yields. The relative reaction rate of substrates was determined (primary > phenol > secondary â« tertiary). The reagent's utility as a selective sulfamoylation reagent with polyols is also demonstrated.

Zeroth- and first-generation poly(amido)amine dendrimers have been functionalized with dithiocarbamate end groups and reacted with ruthenium complexes, to form metallodendrimers. Monomeric ruthenium dithiocarbamate complexes were also prepared as model compounds and their spectroscopic data compared with those of the metallodendrimers. The novel compounds were characterized using NMR spectroscopy ((1)H and (13)C) and mass spectrometry. The compound [Ru(S(2)CNMe(2))(PPh(3))(eta(5)-C(5)H(5))] has also been characterized crystallographically.
