Vanadium-and chromium-catalyzed dehydrogenative synthesis of imines from alcohols and amines

Vanadium(IV) tetraphenylporphyrin dichloride and chromium(III) tetraphenylporphyrin chloride have been developed as catalysts for the acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols. The catalysts have been applied to the direct synthesis of imines in overall good yields from a variety of alcohols and amines. The transformations are proposed to proceed by metal?ligand bifunctional pathways with an outer-sphere transfer of two hydrogen atoms from the alcohol to the metal porphyrin complexes. The results show that vanadium and chromium catalysts can also be employed for the dehydrogenation of alcohols with the release of hydrogen gas, and they may represent valuable alternatives to other catalysts based on Earth-abundant metals.

We describe here the synthesis of libraries of novel 1-subtituted-5-aryl-1H-imidazole, 5-aryl-4-tosyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazole and 5-aryl-1,3-oxazole fragments via microwave (MW)-assisted cycloaddition of para-toluenesulfonylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) to imines and aldehydes. The compounds obtained were biologically evaluated in an AlphaScreen HIV-1 IN-LEDGF/p75 inhibition assay with six imidazole-based compounds (16c, 16f, 17c, 17f, 20a and 20d) displaying more than 50% inhibition at 10 μM, with IC50 values ranging from 7.0 to 30.4 μM. Additionally the hypothesis model developed predicts all active scaffolds except 20d to occupy similar areas as the N-heterocyclic (A) moiety and two aromatic rings (B and C) of previously identified inhibitor 5. These results indicate that the identified compounds represent a viable starting point for their use as templates in the design of next generation inhibitors targeting the HIV-1 IN and LEDGF/p75 protein-protein interaction. In addition, the in vitro antimicrobial properties of these fragments were tested by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays showing that compound 16f exhibited a MIC value of 15.6 μg/ml against S. aureus, while 17f displayed a similar MIC value against B. cereus, suggesting that these compounds could be further developed to specifically target those microbial pathogens.

Manganese(III) porphyrin chloride complexes have been developed for the first time as catalysts for the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines. The reaction has been applied to the direct synthesis of imines, tertiary amines and quinolines where only hydrogen gas and/or water are formed as the by-product(s). The mechanism is believed to involve the formation of a manganese(III) alkoxide complex which degrades into the aldehyde and a manganese(III) hydride species. The latter reacts with the alcohol to form hydrogen gas and thereby regenerates the alkoxide complex.

Direct asymmetric synthesis of N-chiral amine oxides was accomplished (up to 91:9 e.r.) by means of a bimetallic titanium catalyst. A hydroxy group situated at the γ-position of the N stereocenter enables the desired N-oxidation through dynamic kinetic resolution of the trivalent amine substrates. The method was further extended to the kinetic resolution of racemic γ-amino alcohols with a preexisting stereocenter, giving an important class of enantioenriched (up to 99.9:0.1 e.r.) building blocks that are otherwise difficult to synthesize.

, (2008/06/13)
The present invention relates to: a) methylbiphenyl derivatives of general formula: in which R1represents OH, C3-C7alkyl or C3-C7cycloalkyl, these compounds being in the form of individual isomers or mixtures thereof, b) their preparation by reaction: either of a hydroxylamine salt with an N-substituted o-(p-tolyl)benzaldimine, to give o-(p-tolyl)benzaldoxime or of an N-substituted 2-halobenzaldimine with a p-tolylmagnesium halide in the presence of an inorganic manganese derivative, to give the compounds of formula I in which R1represents C3-C7alkyl or C3-C7cycloalkyl c) their use for the preparation of o-(p-tolyl)-benzonitrile, which is an intermediate in the synthesis of medicinal products.
