Visible-Light-Driven CarboxyLic Amine Protocol (CLAP) for the Synthesis of 2-Substituted Piperazines under Batch and Flow Conditions
Piperazines are privileged scaffolds in medicinal chemistry. Disclosed herein is a visible-light-promoted decarboxylative annulation protocol between a glycine-based diamine and various aldehydes to access 2-aryl, 2-heteroaryl, as well as 2-alkyl piperazines. The iridium-based complex [Ir(ppy)2(dtbpy)]PF6 and carbazolyl dicyanobenzene 4CzIPN were found to be the photocatalysts of choice to efficiently perform the transformation under mild conditions, whether in batch or in continuous mode.
Biocatalytic Access to Piperazines from Diamines and Dicarbonyls
Given the widespread importance of piperazines as building blocks for the production of pharmaceuticals, an efficient and selective synthesis is highly desirable. Here we show the direct synthesis of piperazines from 1,2-dicarbonyl and 1,2-diamine substrates using the R-selective imine reductase from Myxococcus stipitatus as biocatalyst. Various N- and C-substituted piperazines with high activity and excellent enantioselectivity were obtained under mild reaction conditions reaching up to 8.1 g per liter.
