- Disulfonimide-Catalyzed Asymmetric Reduction of N-Alkyl Imines
-
A chiral disulfonimide (DSI)-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of N-alkyl imines with Hantzsch esters as a hydrogen source in the presence of Boc2O has been developed. The reaction delivers Boc-protected N-alkyl amines with excellent yields and enantioselectivity. The method tolerates a large variety of alkyl amines, thus illustrating potential for a general reductive cross-coupling of ketones with diverse amines, and it was applied in the synthesis of the pharmaceuticals (S)-Rivastigmine, NPS R-568 Hydrochloride, and (R)-Fendiline.

A method of making (R)-N- 1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethyl!-3-(2-chlorobenzene)propanamine which involves reducing the appropriate amidyl or iminyl precursor with an appropriate reducing agent. The appropriate amidyl or iminyl precursor is made from a synthesis involving the use of (R)-3-methoxy-α-methylbenzylamine. A method of condensing a nitrile with a primary or secondary amine to form an imine involves the reaction of a nitrile with diisobutylaluminum hydride; and then reacting the resultant compound with a primary or secondary amine to form the imine. The process is especially useful for producing enantiomerically pure chiral imines, and, ultimately, amines. Typical such imines have the formula: STR1 wherein R, R1, R2 and R3 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, aryl and aralkyl.
