- Stable and reusable nanoscale Fe2O3-catalyzed aerobic oxidation process for the selective synthesis of nitriles and primary amides
-
The sustainable introduction of nitrogen moieties in the form of nitrile or amide groups in functionalized molecules is of fundamental interest because nitrogen-containing motifs are found in a large number of life science molecules, natural products and materials. Hence, the synthesis and functionalization of nitriles and amides from easily available starting materials using cost-effective catalysts and green reagents is highly desired. In this regard, herein we report the nanoscale iron oxide-catalyzed environmentally benign synthesis of nitriles and primary amides from aldehydes and aqueous ammonia in the presence of 1 bar O2 or air. Under mild reaction conditions, this iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidation process proceeds to synthesise functionalized and structurally diverse aromatic, aliphatic and heterocyclic nitriles. Additionally, applying this iron-based protocol, primary amides have also been prepared in a water medium.

-
A compound represented by the formula (I) or a salt thereof: (I) wherein the ring A represents a 5- to 8-membered ring which may have additional substituent besides R6, R7 and R8; R1 represents an electron-attracting group; R2, R3, R4 and R5 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a group attached through a carbon atom, a group attached through a nitrogen atom, a group attached through an oxygen group, or a group attached through a sulfur atom; R6 represents a halogen atom, a group attached through a carbon atom, a group attached through a nitrogen atom, a group attached through an oxygen group, or a group attached through a sulfur atom, and R7 represents a cyano group, a nitro group, an acyl group which may have a substituent, a carboxyl group which may be esterified or amidated, or a hydrocarbon group which may have a substituent, or R6 and R7 together with a carbon atom to which they are attached may form a ring which may have a substituent; and R8 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a group attached through a carbon atom, a group attached through an oxygen atom, or a group attached through a sulfur atom. The compound or salt has an excellent androgen receptor modulating effect, and is useful for the prevention/treatment of hypogonadism, partial androgen deficiency in aging male, decline in physical strength, cachexia, osteoporosis and the like.
