Mild and Simple Biomimetic Conversion of Amines to Carbonyl Compounds
4-Formyl-1-methylpyridinium benzenesulfonate is a convenient reagent for the chemical modification of primary amines to aldehydes and ketones.This method mimics the biological process for transamination reactions with pyridoxal (vitamin b6).As in that process, it involves imine formation, prototropic rearrangement, and hydrolysis.The conditions are extremely mild and are compatible with a large variety of sensitive functional groups.This process provides a simple and a efficient alternative to the somewhat harsher procedures generally employed for such transformations.
