The selective reduction of amides into an intermediate hemiaminal catalyzed by Mo(CO)6 together with the inexpensive and easy to handle TMDS (1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane) as reducing agent, followed by subsequent trapping of the hemiaminal with a cyanide source, allows for the straightforward synthesis of α-amino nitriles. The methodology presented here, displays high levels of chemoselectivity allowing for the reduction of amides in the presence of functional groups such as ketones, imines, aldehydes, and acids, which affords a simple route for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles with a broad scope of functionalities in high yields. Furthermore, the applicability of this methodology is demonstrated by scale up experiments and by derivatization of the target compounds into synthetically interesting products. The selective cyanation is successfully applied in late stage functionalizations of amide containing drugs and prolinol derivatives.

Abstract The Strecker reaction was performed via a one-pot three component condensation of hetero aromatic/aromatic aldehydes, secondary amines and trimetylsilyl cyanide in the presence of propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P) to accomplish the corresponding α-aminonitriles. The main advantages of this method are very short reaction time and excellent yields.
Chirally deuterated benzyl chlorides from benzyl alcohols via hexachloroacetone/polymer-supported triphenylphosphine: Synthesis of protected (2S, 3S)-[3-2H, 15N]-tyrosine

Chirally deuterated benzyl chlorides were prepared using novel, general hexachloroacetone/polymer-supported triphenylphosphine treatment of chirally deuterated benzyl alcohols. Doubly labeled protected tyrosine was obtained in 62% yield with 86% de at the α-carbon and 82% de at the β-carbon. Key in the synthesis was the alkylation of 15N-labeled (-)-8-phenylmenthylhippurate with R-(-)-4-triisopropylsilyloxybenzyl-α-d chloride. Chirally deuterated benzyl chlorides were prepared in high yield with inversion from benzyl alcohols using solid-phase methods. One of the benzyl chlorides obtained was used in the synthesis of protected tyrosine labeled with 15N and chirally deuterated on the β-position. Copyright
