Visible Light-Induced Aerobic Epoxidation of α,β-Unsaturated Ketones Mediated by Amidines

An aerobic photoepoxidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones driven by visible light in the presence of tetramethylguanidine (3b), tetraphenylporphine (H2TPP), and molecular oxygen under mild conditions was revealed. The corresponding α,β-epoxy ketones were obtained in yields of up to 94% in 96 h. The reaction time was shortened to 4.6 h by flow synthesis. The mechanism related to singlet oxygen was supported by experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Unexpected formation of N,N-disubstituted formamidines from aromatic amines, formamides and trifluoroacetic anhydride

An intriguing selectivity towards the formation of the formamidine was observed upon the reaction of an amine with sodium hydride and trifluoroacetic anhydride in dimethyl formamide. Various aromatic amines were reacted with a series of N,N-disubstituted formamides as a solvent under the influence of trifluoroacetic anhydride to thoroughly probe this behaviour. A trend in selectivity is discussed and a proposed mechanism for the reaction is also presented.

PyBroP: A convenient activator for the synthesis of formamidines

PyBroP was used as a convenient coupling reagent in the synthesis of formamidines from aliphatic and aromatic primary amines and N,N- dimethylformamide.
