Electrochemically Enabled, Nickel-Catalyzed Amination

Along with amide bond formation, Suzuki cross-coupling, and reductive amination, the Buchwald–Hartwig–Ullmann-type amination of aryl halides stands as one of the most employed reactions in modern medicinal chemistry. The work herein demonstrates the potential of utilizing electrochemistry to provide a complementary avenue to access such critical bonds using an inexpensive nickel catalyst under mild reaction conditions. Of note is the scalability, functional-group tolerance, rapid rate, and the ability to employ a variety of aryl donors (Ar?Cl, Ar?Br, Ar?I, Ar?OTf), amine types (primary and secondary), and even alternative X?H donors (alcohols and amides).

PROCESS FOR PREPARING AMINES BY HOMOGENEOUSLY CATALYZED ALCOHOL AMINATION IN THE PRESENCE OF A COMPLEX CATALYST COMPRISING IRIDIUM AND AN AMINO ACID

The invention relates to a process for preparing amines (A) by alcohol amination of alcohols (Al) by means of an aminating agent (Am) with elimination of water, wherein the alcohol amination is carried out in the presence of a complex catalyst comprising iridium and an amino acid.

Selective alkylation of amines with alcohols by Cp*- iridium(III) half-sandwich complexes

[Cp*Ir(Pro)Cl] (Pro = prolinato) was identified among a series of Cp*-iridium half-sandwich complexes as a highly reactive and selective catalyst for the alkylation of amines with alcohols. It is active under mild conditions in either toluene or water without the need for base or other additives, tolerates a wide range of alcohols and amines, and gives secondary amines in good to excellent isolated yields.

Study of the microwave-assisted hydrolysis of nitriles and esters and the implementation of this system in rapid microwave-assisted Pd-catalyzed amination

Microwave-assisted hydrolysis of benzonitriles and methyl benzoates has been studied using a toluene/concd aq KOH two phase system in the presence and absence of phase transfer catalyst. Conditions to allow and avoid smooth hydrolysis could be identified. Based on the latter, the first microwave protocol which allows the rapid Pd-catalyzed amination of aliphatic amines with chlorobenzenes containing sensitive functional groups has been developed.

Palladium-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl Nonaflates

The first detailed study of the palladium-catalyzed amination of aryl nonaflates is reported. Use of ligands 2-4 and 6 allows for the catalytic amination of electron-rich and -neutral aryl nonaflates with both primary and secondary amines. With use of Xantphos 5, the catalytic amination of a variety of functionalized aryl nonaflates resulted in excellent yields of anilines; even 2-carboxymethyl aryl nonaflate is effectively coupled with a primary alkylamine. Moderate yields were obtained when coupling halo-aryl nonaflates with a variety of amines, where in most cases the aryl nonaflate reacted in preference to the aryl halide. Overall, aryl nonaflates are an effective alternative to triflates in palladium-catalyzed C-N bond-forming processes due to their increased stability under the reaction conditions.

A general procedure to selectively prepare N-alkylanilines by an unexpected reaction of (Z)-(tert-butylsulfanyl)(aryl)diazenes with alkyllithium reagents

A general procedure has been set up to prepare, selectively, the N-monoalkylanilines 7, reacting (Z)-(tert-butylsulfanyl)(aryl)diazenes 3 with alkyllithium 6 (MeLi, BuLi, s-BuLi, n-C6H13Li). The reactions were carried out in anhydrous diethyl ether at 0°C or - 78°C, depending on the reagent 6, and then at room temperature. In optimal conditions the yields of the pure products 7 (uncontaminated by dialkylation products) were from good to excellent: for 38 considered examples, 34 were positive with yields varying between 61percent and 91percent (average yield 78percent). Collateral proofs were carried out to support a hypothesized reaction mechanism.

Catalyst for aromatic C—O, C—N, and C—C bond formation

The present invention is directed to a transition metal catalyst, comprising a Group 8 metal and a ligand having the structure wherein R, R′ and R″ are organic groups having 1-15 carbon atoms, n=1-5, and m=0-4. The present invention is also directed to a method of forming a compound having an aromatic or vinylic carbon-oxygen, carbon-nitrogen, or carbon-carbon bond using the above catalyst. The catalyst and the method of using the catalyst are advantageous in preparation of compounds under mild conditions of approximately room temperature and pressure.

Air stable, sterically hindered ferrocenyl dialkylphosphines for palladium-catalyzed C-C, C-N, and C-O bond-forming cross-couplings

Pentaphenylferrocenyl di-tert-butylphosphine has been prepared in high yield from a two-step synthetic procedure, and the scope of various cross-coupling processes catalyzed by complexes bearing this ligand has been investigated. This ligand creates a remarkably general palladium catalyst for aryl halide amination and for Suzuki coupling. Turnovers of roughly 1000 were observed for aminations with unactivated aryl bromides or chlorides. In addition, complexes of this ligand catalyzed the formation of selected aryl ethers under mild conditions. The reactions encompassed electron-rich and electron-poor aryl bromides and chlorides. In the presence of catalysts containing this ligand, these aryl halides coupled with acyclic or cyclic secondary alkyl- and arylamines, with primary alkyl- and arylamines, and with aryl- and primary alkylboronic acids. These last couplings provide the first general procedure for reaction of terminal alkylboronic acids with aryl halides without toxic or expensive bases. The ligand not only generates highly active palladium catalysts, but it is air stable in solution and in the solid state. Palladium(0) complexes of this ligand are also air stable as a solid and react only slowly with oxygen in solution.
