N-Acylphosphatidylethanolamine phospholipase D (NAPE-PLD) is regarded as the main enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of N-acylethanolamines (NAEs), a family of bioactive lipid mediators. Previously, we reported N-(cyclopropylmethyl)-6-((S)-3-hydroxypyrrolidin-1-yl)-2-((S)-3-phenylpiperidin-1-yl)pyrimidine-4-carboxamide (1, LEI-401) as the first potent and selective NAPE-PLD inhibitor that decreased NAEs in the brains of freely moving mice and modulated emotional behavior [ Mock et al. Nat Chem. Biol., 2020, 16, 667-675 ]. Here, we describe the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of a library of pyrimidine-4-carboxamides as inhibitors of NAPE-PLD that led to the identification of LEI-401. A high-throughput screening hit was modified at three different substituents to optimize its potency and lipophilicity. Conformational restriction of an N-methylphenethylamine group by replacement with an (S)-3-phenylpiperidine increased the inhibitory potency 3-fold. Exchange of a morpholine substituent for an (S)-3-hydroxypyrrolidine reduced the lipophilicity and further increased activity by 10-fold, affording LEI-401 as a nanomolar potent inhibitor with drug-like properties. LEI-401 is a suitable pharmacological tool compound to investigate NAPE-PLD function in vitro and in vivo.

The first continuous flow process was developed to synthesize N-methyl secondary amines from alkyl mesylates and epoxides via a nucleophilic substitution using aqueous methylamine. A variety of N-methyl secondary amines were produced in good to excellent yields, including a number of bioactive compounds or their precursors. Up to 10.6 g (88% yield) of an N-methyl secondary amine was produced in 140 min process time. The amination procedure included an in-line workup, and the starting mesylate material was also produced in continuous flow from the corresponding alcohol. Finally, an in-line process combining the mesylate synthesis and nucleophilic substitution was developed.

Provided is a process for producing an amine via a hydroaminomethylation reaction of a non- aromatic C-C double bond, said process comprising a step of reacting a compound comprising a non-aromatic C-C double bond with an iminium ion in a solvent comprising an alcohol, wherein the iminium ion is represented by the following formula (I): wherein R1 and R2 are independently hydrogen or selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic hydrocarbon group which may be substituted, an aromatic hydrocarbon group which may be substituted, an aliphatic heterocyclic group which may be substituted, an aromatic heterocyclic group which may be substituted and of combinations thereof, such as an aralkyl group which may be substituted; and R1 and R2 may be bonded to each other to form a ring together with the nitrogen atom to which they are bound; and wherein R1 and R2 are not both hydrogen and at least one of R1 and R2 carries a hydrogen atom at a carbon atom in ex? position to the nitrogen atom of the iminium ion.

The first B(C6F5)3-catalyzed deoxygenative reduction of amides into the corresponding amines with readily accessible and stable ammonia borane (AB) as a reducing agent under mild reaction conditions is reported. This metal-free protocol provides facile access to a wide range of structurally diverse amine products in good to excellent yields, and various functional groups including those that are reduction-sensitive were well tolerated. This new method is also applicable to chiral amide substrates without erosion of the enantiomeric purity. The role of BF3 ? OEt2 co-catalyst in this reaction is to activate the amide carbonyl group via the in situ formation of an amide-boron adduct. (Figure presented.).

In comparison to the extensively studied metal-catalyzed hydroamination reaction, hydroaminomethylation has received significantly less attention despite its considerable potential to streamline amine synthesis. State-of-the-art protocols for hydroaminomethylation of alkenes rely largely on transition-metal catalysis, enabling this transformation only under highly designed and controlled conditions. Here we report a broadly applicable, acid-mediated approach to the hydroaminomethylation of unactivated alkenes and alkynes. This methodology employs cheap, readily available, and bench-stable reactants and affords the desired amines with excellent functional group tolerance and impeccable regioselectivity. The broad scope of this transformation, as well as mechanistic investigations and in situ domino functionalization reactions are reported.

Synthesis of β-Chiral Amines by Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of α-Branched Aldehydes Applying Imine Reductases

Imine reductases (IREDs) allow the one-step preparation of optically active secondary and tertiary amines by reductive amination of ketones. Until now, mainly α-chiral amines have been prepared by this route. In this study, we explored the possibility of synthesizing β-chiral amines, a class of compounds which is also frequently found as structural motif in pharmaceuticals but much more challenging to prepare due to the following reasons: (i) The aldehyde substrate already contains the chiral center and needs to be racemized to enable full conversion. (ii) Because the intermediate imine bears the stereo center two carbon atoms remote to the imine nitrogen, it is more challenging to achieve high enantioselectivity compared to α-chiral amine synthesis. For investigating the proof of concept, we first confirmed that different IREDs are able to convert a variety of α-branched aldehydes when combined with five different amine substrates. The IRED from Streptomyces ipomoeae was a suitable enzyme facilitating the dynamic kinetic resolution of 2-phenylpropanal and a substituted 2-methyl-3-phenylpropanal: the corresponding N-methylated β-chiral amines were obtained with '95 % conversion and 78 and 95 %ee. Other amines were formed with low to moderate enantiomeric excess. This exemplifies the potential of IREDs for the one-step synthesis of secondary β-chiral amines, but also the challenge to identify highly selective enzymes for a desired amine product.

Provided is a process for producing an amine via a hydroaminoalkylation reaction of a non-aromatic C-C double bond or C-C triple bond, said process comprising a step of reacting a compound comprising a non-aromatic C-C double bond or C-C triple bond with a reactive component which is obtainable by combining an aminal or a hemiaminal ether with an acidic medium comprising trifluoroacetic acid, wherein the aminal contains two amino groups independently selected from a secondary and a tertiary amino group that are linked by a methylene group wherein one hydrogen atom may be replaced by a further substituent, and at least one of the amino groups carries a hydrogen atom at a carbon atom bound in α-position to its nitrogen atom, and the hemiaminal ether contains a secondary or a tertiary amino group which carries a hydrogen atom at a carbon atom bound in α-position to its nitrogen atom, and the secondary or tertiary amino group is linked to an alkoxy group by a methylene group wherein one hydrogen atom may be replaced by a further substituent.

Aryl dialkyl amines, valuable subunits of a wide range of effect chemicals, are accessed by intramolecular amination of aromatic C-H bonds employing UV photolysis of N-chloroamines. The reactions show good functional group tolerance and allow access to a range of fused and bridged polycyclic structures. The homogeneous reaction conditions allow for the one-pot conversion of secondary amines to their arylated derivatives. Experimental and theoretical evidence supports the involvement of electrophilic aminium radicals which react via direct ortho-attack on the arene.
