Synergetic activation of CO2by the DBU-organocatalyst and amine substrates towards stable carbamate salts for synthesis of oxazolidinones

The development of an efficient methodology to transform CO2 into valuable chemicals has attracted increasing attention concerning the challenging issues of CO2-utilization. Herein, an efficient approach for the preparation of oxazolidinones from CO2, primary (aliphatic/aromatic) amines and 1,2-dichloroethane (or its derivatives) catalyzed by DBU organo-superbase was achieved with yields of 47-97% under mild conditions (80-100 °C, 12 h, 1.0 MPa CO2). Control experiments demonstrated that the formation of an ion-pair carbamate salt intermediate IS-B derived from the reaction of CO2, DBU (catalyst) and an amine (substrate) was the key step for this three-component reaction. The available DBU-amine-CO2 adduct intermediate (like IS-B-2) with fair stability will evolve into the thermodynamically stable product oxazolidinones upon attack of 1,2-dichloroethane (or its derivatives), along with the regeneration of the DBU catalyst. Alternatively, the decomposition of the DBU-aryl amine-CO2 adduct (like IS-B-1) with relatively poor stability also could result in the competitive substitution reaction of 1,2-dichloroethane (or its derivatives) with the aryl amine. This work provides insights into synergetic CO2-activation by the DBU-catalyst and a nucleophilic amine-substrate via the formation of robust carbamate salt intermediates responsible for the final production of oxazolidinones.

Influence of the catalyst structure in the cycloaddition of isocyanates to oxiranes promoted by tetraarylstibonium cations

In the context of our work on electron deficient group 15 cations as Lewis acid catalysts, we have synthesized the triflate salts of a series of tetraarylstibonium cations of general formula [ArSbPh3]+ with Ar = Mes (4+), o-(dimethylamino)phenyl (5+), and o-((dimethylamino)methyl)phenyl (6+). These new cationic antimony derivatives, along with the known [Ph4Sb]+ (1+), 1-naphthyltriphenylstibonium (2+), and [(Ant)SbPh3]+ (3+), have been evaluated as catalysts for the cycloaddition of oxiranes and isocyanates under mild conditions. While all stibonium cations favor the 3,4-oxazolidinone products, the reactivities of 5+ and 6+ are hindered by the ancillary amino donor which quenches the Lewis acidity of the antimony center. A comparison of the other stibonium cations shows that 4+ is the most selective catalyst.

Synthesis of Oxazolidinones and Derivatives through Three-Component Fixation of Carbon Dioxide

An effective three-component fixation of atmospheric CO2 with readily available 1,2-dichloroethane and aromatic amine toward oxazolidinones catalyzed by in situ NHC was developed. The reaction occurred in good to excellent yields with good gene

Efficient synthesis of 2-oxazolidinones from epoxides and carbamates catalyzed by amine-functionalized ionic liquids

A series of amine-functionalized ionic liquids were prepared and their catalytic performance was tested in the synthesis of 2-oxazolidinones from epoxides and carbamates. Under optimized reaction conditions, good to excellent yields of various 2-oxazolidinones were achieved with different epoxides and carbamates. Moreover, the amine-functionalized ionic liquid catalyst could be easily recovered and reused without significant loss in activity.

VanadiumV(salen) catalysed synthesis of oxazolidinones from epoxides and isocyanates

The combination of a vanadiumV(salen) complex V +O(salen) EtOSO3- and tetrabutylammonium bromide forms a highly active catalyst system for the reaction between epoxides and isocyanates leading to oxazolidinones.

Iodine(V) reagents in organic synthesis. Part 3. New routes to heterocyclic compounds via o-iodoxybenzoic acid-mediated cyclizations: Generality, scope, and mechanism

The discovery and development of the o-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) reaction with certain unsaturated N-aryl amides (anilides) to form heterocycles are described. The application of the method to the synthesis of δ-lactams, cyclic urethanes, hydroxy amines, and amino sugars among other important building blocks and intermediates is detailed. In addition to the generality and scope of this cyclization reaction, this article describes a number of mechanistic investigations suggesting a single electron transfer from the anilide functionality to IBX and implicating a radical-based mechanism for the reaction.

Oxidizing polymers: A polymer-supported, recyclable hypervalent iodine(V) reagent for the efficient conversion of alcohols, carbonyl compounds, and unsaturated carbamates in solution

The oxidation of various alcohols and cyclization of an olefinic carbamate succeeds with the first polymer-supported iodine(v) reagent (see scheme). The novel oxidizing polymer oxidizes sensitive and complex alcohols, including protected amino alcohols, efficiency in good excellent yields. In addition, the α,β-dehydration of a ketone is demonstrated.

Selective Formation of α-Cleavage Cycloadduct of Oxirane with Heterocumulene Promoted by High-Coordinated Trialkyltin Complexes

In the reaction of monosubstituted oxiranes and heterocumulenes, trialkyltin iodides coordinated by phosphine oxides effectively catalyzed the formation of heterocyles via cleavage at the substituted site in the oxirane ring, while other types of organotin complexes or noncomplexed organotin iodides promoted selective cleavage at the opposite site.A mechanistic investigation demonstrated that the coordination of phophine oxide promotes the reverse reaction of the oxirane-ring cleavage leading to the predominant formation of α-cleavage cycloadducts.
