- Primary alkylboronic acids as highly active catalysts for the dehydrative amide condensation of α-hydroxycarboxylic acids
-
Primary alkylboronic acids such as methylboronic acid and butylboronic acid are highly active catalysts for the dehydrative amide condensation of α-hydroxycarboxylic acids. The catalytic activities of these primary alkylboronic acids are much higher than those of the previously reported arylboronic acids. The present method was easily applied to a large-scale synthesis, and 14 g of an amide was obtained in a single reaction.

- PRODUCTION METHOD FOR HYDROXY-CARBOXYLIC ACID AMIDE COMPOUND, AND NOVEL ARYLBORONIC ACID COMPOUND
-
A method for production of hydroxycarboxylic acid amide compounds, comprising performing amide condensation between an α- or β-hydroxycarboxylic acid compound and an amine compound in the presence as a catalyst of an alkylboronic acid represented by R3B(OH)2 (wherein R3 is a primary alkyl group) or an arylboronic acid compound to produce a hydroxycarboxylic acid amide compound, the arylboronic acid compound being represented by Formula (1): (in Formula (1), -(CH2)nNR1R2 is bonded at an ortho position or a para position, n is 1 or 2, R1 is a tertiary alkyl group, R2 is a secondary or tertiary alkyl group, and -NR1R2 may be a ring).
