The synthesis of N-Fmoc-O-(N′-Boc-N′-methyl)- aminohomoserine in 35% overall yield from L-homoserine is described. This amino acid can be efficiently incorporated into peptides using Fmoc-chemistry-based solid-phase peptide synthesis, and the resulting peptides can be chemo-selectively glycosylated at the aminooxy side chains to generate neoglycopeptides. The synthesis of this derivative greatly expands the availability of a previously developed neoglycopeptide synthesis strategy.

We report both an intermolecular C-H amination of arenes to access N-methylanilines and an intramolecular variant for the synthesis of tetrahydroquinolines. A newly developed, highly electrophilic aminating reagent was key for the direct synthesis of unprotected N-methylanilines from simple arenes. The reactions display a broad functional group tolerance and employ catalytic amounts of a benign iron salt under mild reaction conditions.

The formation of arene C-N bonds directly from C-H bonds is of great importance and there has been rapid recent development of methods for achieving this through radical mechanisms, often involving reactiveN-centered radicals. A major challenge associated with these advances is that of regiocontrol, with mixtures of regioisomeric products obtained in most protocols, limiting broader utility. We have designed a system that utilizes attractive noncovalent interactions between an anionic substrate and an incoming radical cation in order to guide the latter to the areneorthoposition. The anionic substrate takes the form of a sulfamate-protected aniline and telescoped cleavage of the sulfamate group after amination leads directly toortho-phenylenediamines, key building blocks for a range of medicinally relevant diazoles. Our method can deliver both free amines and monoalkyl amines allowing access to unsymmetrical, selectively monoalkylated benzimidazoles and benzotriazoles. As well as providing concise access to valuableortho-phenylenediamines, this work demonstrates the potential for utilizing noncovalent interactions to control positional selectivity in radical reactions.

Secondary and tertiary alkylamines are privileged substance classes that are often found in pharmaceuticals and other biologically active small molecules. Herein, we report their direct synthesis from alkenes through an aminative difunctionalization reaction enabled by iron catalysis. A family of ten novel hydroxylamine-derived aminating reagents were designed for the installation of several medicinally relevant amine groups, such as methylamine, morpholine and piperazine, through the aminochlorination of alkenes. The method has excellent functional group tolerance and a broad scope of alkenes was converted to the corresponding products, including several drug-like molecules. Besides aminochlorination, the installation of other functionalities through aminoazidation, aminohydroxylation and even intramolecular carboamination reactions, was demonstrated, further highlighting the broad potential of these new reagents for the discovery of novel amination reactions.
