DMF and DMSO catalyse the reaction of butanol with PhNCO but inhibit that with aliphatic isocyanates, due to formation of an active 1 : 1 charge transfer complex with the aromatic isocyanate. Similarity was found in the mode of catalysis of the urethane reaction with these solvents to that with tert

✦ Synopsis
The polymerization of aliphatic isocyanates by organometallic catalysts such as tributyltin oxide, Ti(OBuh or Zr(OBu),, was slow and no enhancement in rate was found on addition of DMF or DMSO, contrary to what was found with PhNCO. However, similar to the latter, fast reactions were observed with catalysts such as Pb-or Co-naphthenate in the presence of DMSO. The results were explained, on the basis of spectral evidence, as due to the weak interaction of DMSO or DMF with the aliphatic isocyanate and formation of a charge transfer complex between them in very low concentration.
