Aerobic amine oxidation is an attractive and elegant process for the α functionalization of amines. However, there are still several mechanistic uncertainties, particularly the factors governing the regioselectivity of the oxidation of asymmetric secondary amines and the oxidation rates of mixed primary amines. Herein, it is reported that singlet-oxygen-mediated oxidation of 1° and 2° amines is sensitive to the strength of the α-C-H bond and steric factors. Estimation of the relative bond dissociation energy by natural bond order analysis or by means of one-bond C-H coupling constants allowed the regioselectivity of secondary amine oxidations to be explained and predicted. In addition, the findings were utilized to synthesize highly regioselective substrates and perform selective amine cross-couplings to produce imines.

The position of an anion above an electron-deficient arene can be controlled by the geometry of appended directing groups. Here a series of ammonium substituted pentafluorophenyl derivatives is investigated. The presented results are one step on the way to find the ideal structural features for an effective and superior receptor for anion-π studies.

This study present a full account of continuous-flow reaction conditions for biomimetic reductive amination of fluorinated carbonyl compounds to corresponding amines and amino acids of biomedical importance. We demonstrate that simple silica-adsorbed DBU can be used as efficient catalysts for on-column 1,3-proton shift reaction, a key transformation in the biomimetic reductive amination process. This new on-column process features operationally convenient conditions, higher chemical yields, enantioselectivity and purity of the corresponding products as compared with traditional in-flask reactions. Moreover the removal of base-catalyst, the most delicate problem of the in-flask reactions, is not an issue in the on-column process, as the silica-adsorbed DBU or polymer-bound guanidine remains on the column and can be reused. This feature renders the overall process substantially more economical and synthetically efficient, in particular, for large-scale synthesis of the corresponding fluorinated amines and amino acids target.
Biomimetic reductive amination of fluoro aldehydes and ketones via [1,3]-proton shift reaction. Scope and limitations

A systematic study of azomethine-azomethine isomerizations of the N-benzylimines 2, derived from fluorinated aldehydes or ketones and benzylamine, has been made. The results reveal that, in sharp contrast to hydrocarbon analogs, fluorinated imines of 2 in triethylamine solution undergo isomerizations to give the corresponding N-benzylidene derivatives 5 (for 5/2 K > 32) in good isolated yields. The rates of the isomerizations depend on the starting imine structures and increase in the following order: aryl perfluoroalkyl ketimine 2m, per(poly)fluoroalkyl aldimine 2a,d-g, perfluoroaryl aldimine 2h, alkyl perfluoroalkyl ketimine 2i,j. The presence of chlorine or bromine atoms in the α-position to the C=N double bond of the starting imine favors a dehydrohalogenation reaction, giving rise to unsaturated products 6-9. The azomethine-azomethine isomerization was studied and proven to proceed essentially (>98%) intramolecularly with isotope exchange experiments. High chemical yields, the simplicity of the experimental procedure, and the low cost of all reagents employed make this biomimetic transamination of fluorocarbonyl compounds a practical method for preparing fluorine-containing amines of biological interest.
