Iridium and bis(4-nitrophenyl)phosphoric acid catalysed amination of diol by hydrogen-borrowing methodology for the synthesis of cyclic amine: Synthesis of clopidogrel

The borrowing hydrogen method is an environmentally benign process for the synthesis of amines, as H2O is the side product. A new green process for the amination of diol by [Ir] catalyst 15 and bis(4-nitrophenyl)phosphoric acid for the synthesis of cyclic amine is reported. This method was successfully applied for the synthesis of antiplatelet drug clopidogrel.

Phenol and its derivatives, which naturally occur in lignocellulose, can be considered as a renewable feedstock not only for aromatic, but also for alicyclic compounds, such as primary and N-substituted cyclohexylamines. So far, the latter are mostly produced from non-renewable starting materials like benzene via problematic nitration/reduction or cross-coupling routes. Herein, an efficient reductive amination of phenol with ammonia or amines is demonstrated, for the first time without the need for rare and expensive noble metals and without using any additives. Various supported Ni catalysts were screened and we elucidated the influence of the key parameters, including the acid-base properties of the supporting material. Acquired knowledge was then applied to different phenol-ammonia/amine combinations, resulting in the synthesis of various primary, secondary and tertiary cyclohexylamines in fair to very high yields.
