Two-Step Protocol for Iodotrimethylsilane-Mediated Deoxy-Functionalization of Alcohols

We have developed a two-step protocol for iodotrimethylsilane-mediated deoxy-functionalization of primary and secondary alcohols to afford products containing a C?N, C?S, or C?O bond. In the first step the alcohol undergoes iodination with iodotrimethylsilane, and in the second, the iodine atom is replaced by a N, S, or O nucleophile. Compared with traditional Mitsunobu reaction, non-acidic pre-nucleophiles can be used, and the reaction proceeds with retention of configuration. This operationally simple, highly efficient protocol can be used for some natural products and small-molecule drugs containing hydroxy-group.

Carbon monoxide-driven osmium catalyzed reductive amination harvesting WGSR power

Herein, we present the first example of Os-catalyzed efficient reductive amination under water-gas shift reaction conditions. The developed catalytic systems are formedin situin aqueous solutions, employ as small as 0.0625 mol% osmium and are capable of delivering reductive amination products for a broad range of aliphatic and aromatic carbonyl compounds and amines. The scope of the reaction, active catalytic systems, possible limitations of the method and DFT-supported mechanistic considerations are discussed in detail in the manuscript.

Cobalt-Catalyzed Aminocarbonylation of Alkyl Tosylates: Stereospecific Synthesis of Amides

Metal-catalyzed aminocarbonylation is a standard approach for installing amide functionality in chemical synthesis. Despite broad application of this transformation using aryl or vinyl electrophiles, there are few examples involving unactivated aliphatic substrates. Furthermore, there are no stereocontrolled aminocarbonylations of alkyl electrophiles known. Herein, we report a stereospecific aminocarbonylation of unactivated alkyl tosylates for the synthesis of enantioenriched amides. This cobalt-catalyzed transformation uses a remarkably broad range of amines and proceeds with excellent stereospecificity and chemoselectivity.

Hydrogen-free reductive amination using iron pentacarbonyl as a reducing agent

We developed solvent-free reductive amination without an external hydrogen source using iron pentacarbonyl as a reducing agent. Neither a catalyst nor any other additives were employed. Various types of substrates are suitable for the reaction, including

A mild one-pot conversion of alkenes into amines through tandem ozonolysis and reductive amination

The selective reduction of hydroperoxyacetals to aldehydes by sodium triacetoxyborohydride provides the basis for a mild one-pot synthesis of amines from alkenes. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
