- Use of α,ω-Dichloroketimine Building Blocks for the Construction of 1-Azabicyclo[31.0]hexanes, Piperidines, Pyridines, Pyrroles, and Tetrahydroindoles
-
A variety of different N-[2-chloro-4-(chloromethyl)pent-4-enylidene]amines and N-(2,6-dichlorohex-4-enylidene)amines was prepared for the first time, and their reactivity as eligible building blocks for the synthesis of biologically relevant nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds was studied. In this way, a convenient entry into functionalized 1-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes, piperidines, pyridines, pyrroles, and tetrahydroindoles was developed, pointing to the broad synthetic flexibility of these dichlorinated imine substrates.

- Flow synthesis of 2-methylpyridines via α-methylation
-
A series of simple 2-methylpyridines were synthesized in an expedited and convenient manner using a simplified bench-top continuous flow setup. The reactions proceeded with a high degree of selectivity, producing α-methylated pyridines in a much greener fashion than is possible using conventional batch reaction protocols. Eight 2-methylated pyridines were produced by progressing starting material through a column packed with Raney nickel using a low boiling point alcohol (1-propanol) at high temperature. Simple collection and removal of the solvent gave products in very good yields that were suitable for further use without additional work-up or purification. Overall, this continuous flow method represents a synthetically useful protocol that is superior to batch processes in terms of shorter reaction times, increased safety, avoidance of work-up procedures, and reduced waste. A brief discussion of the possible mechanism(s) of the reaction is also presented which involves heterogeneous catalysis and/or a Ladenberg rearrangement, with the proposed methyl source as C1 of the primary alcohol.

- Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of primary amines with internal alkynes through C-H bond activation: Scope and mechanistic studies
-
The oxidative coupling of primary amines with internal alkynes catalyzed by Ru complexes is presented as a general atom-economy methodology with a broad scope of applications in the synthesis of N-heterocycles. Reactions proceed through regioselective C-H bond activation in 15 minutes under microwave irradiation or in 24 hours with conventional heating. The synthesis of 2,3,5-substituted pyridines, benzo[h]isoquinolines, benzo[g]isoquinolines, 8,9-dihydro-benzo[de]quinoline, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinolines, pyrido[3,4g]isoquinolines, and pyrido[4,3g]isoquinolines is achievable depending on the starting primary amine used. DFT calculations on a benzylamine substrate support a reaction mechanism that consists of acetate-assisted C-H bond activation, migratory-insertion, and C-N bond formation steps that involve 28-30 kcalmol-1. The computational study is extended to additional substrates, namely, 1-naphthylmethyl-, 2-methylallyl-, and 2-thiophenemethylamines.

- Rh(III)-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling of acrylic acids with unsaturated oxime esters: Carboxylic acids serve as traceless activators
-
α,β-Unsaturated carboxylic acids undergo Rh(III)-catalyzed decarboxylative coupling with α,β-unsaturated O-pivaloyl oximes to provide substituted pyridines in good yield. The carboxylic acid, which is removed by decarboxylation, serves as a traceless activating group, giving 5-substituted pyridines with very high levels of regioselectivity. Mechanistic studies rule out a picolinic acid intermediate, and an isolable rhodium complex sheds further light on the reaction mechanism.

- Convenient procedure for the α-methylation of simple pyridines
-
A convenient and straightforward laboratory procedure is presented for a highly selective mono-α-methylation of pyridines without reactive functional groups. The methylating agent is probably carbon monoxide/dihydrogen generated in situ from a high-boiling alcohol on a metal surface. The reaction is catalyzed by a Raney nickel catalyst at ambient pressure, which renders the protocol practicable in standard organic laboratories. The intrinsically high reaction temperature and long reaction times restrict the application to pyridine derivatives with less reactive substituents. The outcome of the reaction can be rationalized by the assumption of a simple heterogeneous mechanism. Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

Reaction of a variety of (α,β-unsaturated) imines or oximes with aliphatic aldehydes or cyclic ketones in the presence of a secondary amine afforded alkyl-, and/or aryl-, and/or cycloalkyl-substituted pyridines. To explain their formation, a hetero Diels-Alder reaction has been postulated, in which an 1-aza-1,3-butadiene reacts with an in situ generated enamine.

- Synthesis of 4-methoxy-2,3,5-trimethylpyridine: a specific building block for compounds with gastric-acid inhibiting activity.
-
A new synthesis of 4-methoxy-2,3,5-trimethylpyridine (2), an important building block for the preparation of gastric-acid inhibiting compounds, is described. Condensation of ethyl 3-amino-2-methyl-2-butenoate (3) and diethyl 2-methylmalonate (4) gives 4-hydroxy-3,5,6-trimethyl-2(1H)-pyridone 5. Reaction of 5 with phosphoryl chloride affords 2,4-dichloro-3,5,6-trimethylpyridine (9a), which, upon hydrogenolysis with palladium on charcoal, gives 2,3,5-trimethylpyridine (10). However, selective hydrogenolysis in acidic solution yields 4-chloro-2-3-5-trimethylpyridine (11). Substitution of the chlorine in 11 with methoxide ion gives 4-methoxy-2,3,5-trimethylpyridine (2), which can be oxidized to the corresponding N-oxide (13). This constitutes a new and efficient route to compound 2 in an overall yield of 43%.
