Highly Stereoselective Synthesis of Saccharin-Substituted β-Lactams via in Situ Generation of a Heterosubstituted Ketene and a Zwitterionic Intermediate as Potential Antibacterial Agents

Highly stereoselective synthesis of saccharin derivatives containing functionalized 2-azetidinone moiety was achieved starting from saccharin as an available precursor. The approach to these valuable heterocyclic scaffolds involves a formal [2π + 2π] cycloaddition between Schiff bases and the saccharinylketene as a novel ketene which was generated in situ and an electrocyclic reaction of a zwitterionic intermediate. The identification of the ketene was confirmed by reaction with the stable free radical TEMPO (TO?). Also, the antimicrobial activities of some new substituted saccharin against nine standard bacteria, four bacteria which were isolated from clinical samples and one yeast, were evaluated.

Development of a General Protocol to Prepare 2H-1,3-Benzoxazine Derivatives

A practical synthesis and detailed development process of 2H-1,3-benzoxazine derivatives catalyzed by aldimine and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is described. A broad range of substrates with diverse steric and electronic properties were explored. Aliphatic/aromatic/heteroaromatic substrates all proceed well under conditions which have been optimized into a robust, scalable process.

Highly efficient and selective one-pot tandem imine synthesis via amine-alcohol cross-coupling reaction catalysed by chromium-based MIL-101 supported Au nanoparticles

One-pot tandem synthesis of imines from alcohols and amines is regarded as an effective, economic and green approach under mild conditions. In this work, Au nanoparticles (NPs) dispersed on MIL-101 (Au/MIL-101) were demonstrated as highly active and selective bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst for production of various imine derivatives with excellent yields, via amine-alcohol cross-coupling reaction at 343 K in an open flask under an Ar atmosphere. Various physicochemical techniques, including inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), powder X-ray diffraction (P-XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and N2 adsorption-desorption, were used to characterize of the Au/MIL-101 catalyst. The obtained bifunctional catalyst is highly active and selective towards one-pot imine formation and exhibited the highest TOF (30.15-51.47 h?1) among all the ever-reported MOF-supported Au catalysts. The reaction mechanism of the imine formation from alcohol and amine over Au/MIL-101 catalyst was proposed. Mechanism experiment results demonstrate that Au NPs highly effective in activating oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde while the Lewis acid sites on MIL-101 catalyzed the second condensation step without interfering with the oxidation step. As a result, the excellent catalytic performance of Au/MIL-101 can be ascribed to the synergistic effect between Au NPs with Lewis acid sites in MIL-101.

The recognition of a diarylimine as a metabonate produced during incubation of N-benzyl-4-chloroaniline with hepatic microsomal preparations

Evidence is presented for the formation of N-benzylidene-4-chloroaniline as a metabonate during the metabolism of N-benzyl-4-chloroaniline. Control studies suggest that the diarylimine is formed as a chemical artifact from the debenzylation products (benzaldehyde and 4-chloroaniline). This novel observation indicates a possible pathway to amide formation from N-benzylanilines via diarylimines as intermediates.

Copper(i)-catalysed intramolecular hydroarylation-redox cross-dehydrogenative coupling ofN-propargylanilines with phosphites

Intramolecular hydroarylation-redox cross-dehydrogenative coupling ofN-propargylanilines with phosphite diesters proceeded in the presence of Cu(i)-catalysts (20 mol%) to selectively give 2-phosphono-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines in good yields with 100% atomic utilization. P-H and two C-H bonds are activated at once and these hydrogen atoms are trapped by a propargylic triple bond in the molecule.

Designed pincer ligand supported Co(ii)-based catalysts for dehydrogenative activation of alcohols: Studies onN-alkylation of amines, α-alkylation of ketones and synthesis of quinolines

Base-metal catalystsCo1,Co2andCo3were synthesized from designed pincer ligandsL1,L2andL3having NNN donor atoms respectively.Co1,Co2andCo3were characterized by IR, UV-Vis. and ESI-MS spectroscopic studies. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies were investigated to authenticate the molecular structures ofCo1andCo3. CatalystsCo1,Co2andCo3were utilized to study the dehydrogenative activation of alcohols forN-alkylation of amines, α-alkylation of ketones and synthesis of quinolines. Under optimized reaction conditions, a broad range of substrates including alcohols, anilines and ketones were exploited. A series of control experiments forN-alkylation of amines, α-alkylation of ketones and synthesis of quinolines were examined to understand the reaction pathway. ESI-MS spectral studies were investigated to characterize cobalt-alkoxide and cobalt-hydride intermediates. Reduction of styrene by evolved hydrogen gas during the reaction was investigated to authenticate the dehydrogenative nature of the catalysts. Probable reaction pathways were proposed forN-alkylation of amines, α-alkylation of ketones and synthesis of quinolines on the basis of control experiments and detection of reaction intermediates.

Redox-Neutral Imination of Alcohol with Azide: A Sustainable Alternative to the Staudinger/Aza-Wittig Reaction

The traditional Staudinger/aza-Wittig reaction represents one of the most powerful tools for imine formation. However, for this multistep procedure, the sacrificial phosphine has to be used, resulting in difficulties in the purification process and waste disposal at the same time. Here, we report a redox-neutral azide-alcohol imination methodology enabled by a base-metal nickel PN3 pincer catalyst. The one-step, waste-free, and high atom-economical features highlight its advantages further. Moreover, mechanistic insight suggests a non-metal-ligand cooperation pathway based on the observation of an intermediate and density functional theory calculations.

One-Pot Synthesis of Schiff Bases by Defect-Induced TiO2- x-Catalyzed Tandem Transformation from Alcohols and Nitro Compounds

Schiff bases that are generally formed from condensation reactions of aldehydes (or ketones) and amino groups could also be produced by a photodriven one-pot tandem reaction between alcohols and nitro compounds, in our case. Herein, TiO2-x porous cages derived from NH2-MIL-125 by a self-sacrificing template route are used to study the organic transformation and exhibit 100% conversion efficiency of nitrobenzene and 100% selectivity for Schiff bases in the system of benzyl alcohol (5 mL) and nitrobenzene (41 μL) upon light irradiation, but hydrogen by dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol cannot be detected. Successful occurrence of the organic transformation is mainly attributed to Ti(III)-oxygen vacancy associates. Surface oxygen vacancy-related Ti(III) sites are responsible for binding with nitro groups, and low-coordinated Ti5c sites selectively adsorb hydroxyl groups of benzyl alcohol. The Ti(III) and oxygen vacancy associates capture photogenerated electrons for achievement of multielectron reduction of nitrobenzene and the subsequent Schiff base condensation reaction with the as-formed benzaldehyde.

Efficient Imine Formation by Oxidative Coupling at Low Temperature Catalyzed by High-Surface-Area Mesoporous CeO2 with Exceptional Redox Property

High-surface-area mesoporous CeO2 (hsmCeO2) was prepared by a facile organic-template-induced homogeneous precipitation process and showed excellent catalytic activity in imine synthesis in the absence of base from primary alcohols and amines in air atmosphere at low temperature. For comparison, ordinary CeO2 and hsmCeO2 after different thermal treatments were also investigated. XRD, N2 physisorption, UV-Raman, H2 temperature-programmed reduction, O2 temperature-programmed desorption, EPR spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to unravel the structural and redox properties. The hsmCeO2 calcined at 400 °C shows the highest specific surface area (158 m2 g?1), the highest fraction of surface coordinatively unsaturated Ce3+ ions (18.2 %), and the highest concentration of reactive oxygen vacancies (2.4×1015 spins g?1). In the model reaction of oxidative coupling of benzyl alcohol and aniline, such an exceptional redox property of the hsmCeO2 catalyst can boost benzylideneaniline formation (2.75 and 5.55 mmol (Formula presented.) h?1 based on >99 % yield at 60 and 80 °C, respectively) in air with no base additives. It can also work effectively at a temperature of 30 °C and in gram-scale synthesis. These are among the best results for all benchmark ceria catalysts in the literature. Moreover, the hsmCeO2 catalyst shows a wide scope towards primary alcohols and amines with good to excellent yield of imines. The influence of reaction parameters, the reusability of the catalyst, and the reaction mechanism were investigated.
