Carboamination of Unactivated Alkenes through Three-Component Radical Conjugate Addition
Jiang, Heng,Seidler, Gesa,Studer, Armido
, p. 16528 - 16532 (2019)
Two-component Giese type radical additions are highly practical and established reactions. Herein, three-component radical conjugate additions of unactivated alkenes to Michael acceptors are reported. Amidyl radicals, oxidatively generated from α-amido oxy acids using redox catalysis, act as the third reaction component which add to the unactivated alkenes. The adduct radicals engage in Giese type additions to Michael acceptors to provide, after reduction, the three-component products in an overall alkene carboamination reaction. Transformations which can be conducted under practical mild conditions feature high functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope.
Enantioselective direct α-amination of aldehydes via a photoredox mechanism: A strategy for asymmetric amine fragment coupling

The direct, asymmetric α-amination of aldehydes has been accomplished via a combination of photoredox and organocatalysis. Photon-generated N-centered radicals undergo enantioselective α-addition to catalytically formed chiral enamines to directly produce stable α-amino aldehyde adducts bearing synthetically useful amine substitution patterns. Incorporation of a photolabile group on the amine precursor obviates the need to employ a photoredox catalyst in this transformation. Importantly, this photoinduced transformation allows direct and enantioselective access to α-amino aldehyde products that do not require postreaction manipulation.
Serendipitous discovery of α-hydroxyalkyl esters as β-lactamase substrates
Pelto, Ryan B.,Pratt
experimental part, p. 10496 - 10506 (2011/10/18)
O-(1-Carboxy-1-alkyloxycarbonyl) hydroxamates were found to spontaneously decarboxylate in aqueous neutral buffer to form O-(2-hydroxyalkylcarbonyl) hydroxamates. While the former molecules do not react rapidly with serine β-lactamases, the latter are quite good substrates of representative class A and C, but not D, enzymes, and particularly of a class C enzyme. The enzymes catalyze hydrolysis of these compounds to a mixture of the α-hydroxy acid and hydroxamate. Analogous compounds containing aryloxy leaving groups rather that hydroxamates are also substrates. Structure-activity experiments showed that the α-hydroxyl group was required for any substantial substrate activity. Although both d- and l-α-hydroxy acid derivatives were substrates, the former were preferred. The response of the class C activity to pH and to alternative nucleophiles (methanol and d-phenylalanine) suggested that the same active site functional groups participated in catalysis as for classical substrates. Molecular modeling was employed to explore how the α-hydroxy group might interact with the class C β-lactamase active site. Incorporation of the α-hydroxyalkyl moiety into novel inhibitors will be of considerable interest.
Synthesis of modified Weinreb amides: N-tert-butoxy-N-methylamides as effective acylating agents
Labeeuw, Olivier,Phansavath, Phannarath,Genêt, Jean-Pierre
, p. 7107 - 7110 (2007/10/03)
An efficient preparation of N-methyl-O-tert-butylhydroxylamine hydrochloride has been settled, which allowed the synthesis of modified Weinreb amides. Nucleophilic addition of organolithium and Grignard reagents on these N-tert-butoxy-N-methylamides afforded efficiently the corresponding ketones and reduction with DIBAL furnished the corresponding aldehydes in good yields up to 97%.
