Reactivity of heterocyclic α-aminomethylsilanes with alcohols

[Figure not available: see fulltext.] Alkoxylation of N-substituted heterocyclic aminomethylsilyl moieties was studied using primary and tertiary alcohols. The reaction of 4-(silylmethyl)morpholine and 1-(silylmethyl)azepane under catalyst- and solvent-free conditions leads to the formation of dialkoxy- and trialkoxyaminomethylsilyl derivatives. The methanolysis of 4-(silylmethyl)morpholine resulted in trimethoxyaminomethylsilane formation as the main product and two byproducts, i.e., tetramethoxysilane and N-methylmorpholine.

Homoleptic Bis(trimethylsilyl)amides of Yttrium Complexes Catalyzed Hydroboration Reduction of Amides to Amines

Homoleptic lanthanide complex Y[N(TMS)2]3 is an efficient homogeneous catalyst for the hydroboration reduction of secondary amides and tertiary amides to corresponding amines. A series of amides containing different functional groups such as cyano, nitro, and vinyl groups were found to be well-tolerated. This transformation has also been nicely applied to the synthesis of indoles and piribedil. Detailed isotopic labeling experiments, control experiments, and kinetic studies provided cumulative evidence to elucidate the reaction mechanism.

Reduction of Amides to Amines under Mild Conditions via Catalytic Hydrogenation of Amide Acetals and Imidates

A simple and general protocol was developed for selective conversion of amides into amines. Amides were converted into amide acetals and imido esters by O-alkylation and then hydrogenated without isolation into amines under very mild reaction conditions over standard hydrogenation catalysts. Triethyloxonium tertafluoroborate, methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, dimethyl sulfate and ethyl chloroformate were validated as alkylating agent. The synthetic utility of this approach was demonstrated by the selective carbonyl reduction of peptide groups. Carbonyl reduction of peptide group proceeds chemoselective without racemization of the neighboring chiral center. (Figure presented.).

A BEt3-Base catalyst for amide reduction with silane

Reported herein is the development of a simple but practical catalytic system for the selective reduction of amides with hydrosilane or hydrosiloxane. Low-cost and readily available triethylborane (1.0 M in THF), in combination with a catalytic amount of an alkali metal base, was found to catalyze the reduction of all three amide classes (tertiary, secondary, and primary amides) to form amines under mild conditions. In addition, the selective transformation of secondary amides to aldimines and primary amides to nitriles can also be achieved by using a proper combination of BEt3 and base. The scope of these BEt3-base-catalyzed amide hydrosilylation reactions has been explored in depth. Preliminary results of mechanistic studies suggest a modified Piers' silane Si-H···B activation mode wherein the hydride abstraction by BEt3 is promoted by the coordination of an alkoxide or hydroxide anion to the Si center.

Selective synthesis of formamides, 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethanes and methylamines from cyclic amines and CO2/H2 catalyzed by an ionic liquid-Pd/C system

The reduction of CO2 with amines and H2 generally produces N-formylated or N-methylated compounds over different catalysts. Herein, we report the selective synthesis of formamides, 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethanes, and methylamines, which is achieved over an ionic liquid (IL, e.g., 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [BMIm][BF4])-Pd/C catalytic system. By simply varying the reaction temperature, formamides and methylamines can be selectively produced, respectively, in high yields. Interestingly, 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethanes can also be obtained via the McMurry reaction of the formed formamide coupled with subsequent hydrogenation. It was found that [BMIm][BF4] can react with formamide to form a [BMIm]+-formamide adduct; thus combined with Pd/C it can catalyze McMurry coupling of formamide in the presence of H2 to afford 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethane. Moreover, Pd/C-[BMIm][BF4] can further catalyze the hydrogenolysis of 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethane to access methylamine. [BMIm][BF4]-Pd/C was tolerant to a wide substrate scope, giving the corresponding formamides, 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethanes or methylamines in moderate to high yields. This work develops a new route to produce N-methylamine and opens the way to produce 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic)ethane from cyclic amine as well.

Remarkably high catalyst efficiency of a disilaruthenacyclic complex for hydrosilane reduction of carbonyl compounds

A disilaruthenacyclic complex (1) showed extremely high catalytic activity for hydrosilane reduction of aldehydes and ketones to silyl ethers and secondary and tertiary amides to the corresponding amines. An σ-CAM mechanism was proposed to explain the activity.

Borinic Acid Catalysed Reduction of Tertiary Amides with Hydrosilanes: A Mild and Chemoselective Synthesis of Amines

A reduction of various aryl, alkyl, and α,β-unsaturated amides with phenylsilane, catalysed by a borinic acid, is reported. The unprecedented reaction was carried out under very mild conditions and led to useful amines. Furthermore, the reaction tolerates a variety of functional groups. Initial investigations implicated that an intermediate diarylhydroborane is involved in the reaction mechanism.

Rhenium-Loaded TiO2: A Highly Versatile and Chemoselective Catalyst for the Hydrogenation of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives and the N-Methylation of Amines Using H2 and CO2

Herein, we report a heterogeneous TiO2-supported Re catalyst (Re/TiO2) that promotes various selective hydrogenation reactions, which includes the hydrogenation of esters to alcohols, the hydrogenation of amides to amines, and the N-methylation of amines, by using H2 and CO2. Initially, Re/TiO2 was evaluated in the context of the selective hydrogenation of 3-phenylpropionic acid methyl ester to afford 3-phenylpropanol (pH2 =5 MPa, =5 MPa, T=180 °C), which revealed a superior performance over other catalysts that we tested in this study. In contrast to other typical heterogeneous catalysts, hydrogenation reactions with Re/TiO2 did not produce dearomatized byproducts. DFT studies suggested that the high selectivity for the formation of alcohols in favor of the hydrogenation of aromatic rings is ascribed to the higher affinity of Re towards the COOCH3 group than to the benzene ring. Moreover, Re/TiO2 showed a wide substrate scope for the hydrogenation reaction (19 examples). Subsequently, this Re/TiO2 catalyst was applied to the hydrogenation of amides, the N-methylation of amines, and the N-alkylation of amines with carboxylic acids or esters.

A new route to N-aromatic heterocycles from the hydrogenation of diesters in the presence of anilines

The hydrogenation of dicarboxylic acids and their esters in the presence of anilines provides a new synthesis of heterocycles. [Ru(acac)3] and 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (triphos) gave good to excellent yields of the cyclic amines at 220 °C. When aqueous ammonia was used with dimethyl 1,6-hexadienoic acid, ?-caprolactam was obtained in good yield. A side reaction involving alkylation of the amine by methanol was suppressed by using diesters derived from longer chain and branched alcohols. Hydrogenation of optically pure diesters (dimethyl (R)-2-methylbutanedioate and dimethyl (S)-2-methylbutanedioate) with aniline afforded racemic 3-methyl-1-phenylpyrrolidine in 78% yield.
