A one-pot catalyst/external oxidant/solvent-free cascade approach to pyrimidines: Via a 1,5-hydride transfer

A cascade 3-component reaction of 6-aminouracil, aldehyde and tetrahydroisoquinolines under heating in the absence of catalyst, external oxidant and solvent is performed. The reaction constructs a new pyrimidine ring by the functionalization of the C-H bond adjacent to nitrogen through a 1,5-hydride shift. No chromatographic techniques were required to purify the products.

Stereochemistry and Mechanistic Insight in the [2k+2i+2i] Annulations of Ketenes and Imines

The stereochemistry and mechanistic insight in the annulations of one ketene molecule with two imine molecules ([2k+2i+2i] annulation) are studied by using six-membered 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline as an imine probe. A concerted hetero-Diels-Alder cycloaddition mechanism is proposed to explain the stereochemical outcomes. In most cases, the zwitterionic 2-aza-1,3-butadiene-type intermediates, generated from ketenes and imines, undergo endo hetero-Diels-Alder cycloaddition with the second imine molecule. For ketenes with electron-donating substituents, (2,4)-cis-(4,5)-cis-[2k+2i+2i] annuladducts formed stereospecifically, while, for ketenes with electron-accepting substituents, (2,4)-cis-(4,5)-trans-[2k+2i+2i] annuladducts are generated stereospecifically. The [2k+2i+2i] annulations of aryloxyketenes and 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline give stereodivergent products due to the occurrence of the stepwise nucleophilic annulation. However, in the [2k+2i+2i] annulations of seven-membered cyclic imine dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepine, the zwitterionic aza-butadiene-type intermediates exclusively undergo exo hetero-Diels-Alder cycloadditions with another molecule of imine to yield (2,4)-trans-(4,5)-trans-[2k+2i+2i] annuladducts stereospecifically, regardless of the ketene substituents. The mechanistic model not only discloses the nature of the [2k+2i+2i] annulations, but also can be used to explain and predict the stereochemistry of the [2k+2i+2i] annuladducts from different ketenes and imines.

Accelerating H2 Evolution by Anodic Semi-dehydrogenation of Tetrahydroisoquinolines in Water over Co3O4 Nanoribbon Arrays Decorated Nickel Foam

Coupling the H2 evolution reaction in water with thermodynamically favorable organic oxidation reactions is highly desirable, because it can enhance the energy conversion efficiency compared with electrocatalytic water splitting, and produce value-added chemicals instead of O2 in the anodic reaction. Herein, Co3O4 nanoribbon arrays in situ grown on nickel foam (Co3O4@NF) was employed as an effective electrocatalyst for the selective oxidation of tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs). Various value-added semi-dehydrogenation products including dihydroisoquinolines with electro-deficient or -rich groups could be obtained with moderate yields and faradaic efficiencies. Benefitting from the rich surface active sites of Co3O4@NF, a two-electrode (Co3O4@NF||Pt) electrolytic system drove a benchmark current density of 10 mA cm?2 at a cell voltage as low as 1.446 V in 1.0 M KOH aqueous solution containing 0.02 M THIQ, which was reduced by 174 mV in comparison with that of overall water splitting.
