Otera's catalyst, named after Japanese chemist Junzo Otera, is an organostannane compound which has been used as a transesterification catalyst. This isothioscyanate compound is a member of a family of organostannanes reported by Wada and coworkers,[1] and elaborated upon by Otera and coworkers.[2]

Preparation

This class of compounds may be prepared generally by the reaction of an organotin halide and oxide:[3]

2 R₂SnO + 2 R₂SnX₂ → (XR₂SnOSnR₂X)₂

In particular, the thiocyanate compound was prepared by the reaction of dibutyltin oxide with dibutyltin diisothiocyanate.[1] Otherwise, this compound is not commercially available.

Applications

This thiocyanate compound can be used as a transesterification catalyst.[2] Although it is not well known, it has been used in a number of total syntheses.[4][5]

In this application, the reaction occurs via the displacement of the bridging isothiocyanate ligands with the incoming alcohol to form an alcohol-bridged active catalyst. Tin acts as the Lewis acid, and gives the transesterified product.[2][3]
