Oxidative Fluorination of Cyclopropylamides through Organic Photoredox Catalysis
Wang, Ming-Ming,Waser, Jér?me
, p. 16420 - 16424 (2020)
We report an oxidative ring-opening strategy to transform cyclopropylamides and cyclobutylamides into fluorinated imines. The imines can be isolated in their more stable hemiaminal form, with the fluorine atom installed selectively at the γ or δ position. Both inexpensive benzophenone with UVA light or organic and inorganic dyes with blue light could be used as photoredox catalysts to promote this process. Various fluorinated amines were then obtained by nucleophilic attack on the hemiaminals in one pot, giving access to a broad range of useful building blocks for medicinal chemistry.

Diamines are essential building blocks for the synthesis of agrochemicals, drugs, and organic materials, yet their synthesis remains challenging, as both nitrogens need to be differentiated and diverse substitution patterns (1,2, 1,3, or 1,4) are required. We report herein a new strategy giving access to 1,2, 1,3, and 1,4 amido azides as orthogonally protected diamines based on the nitrogen-directed diazidation of alkenes, cyclopropanes, and cyclobutanes. Commercially available copper thiophene-2-carboxylate (CuTc, 2 mol %) as catalyst promoted the diazidation of both πand σ C-C bonds within 10 min in the presence of readily available oxidants and trimethylsilyl azide. Selective substitution of the formed α-amino azide by carbon nucleophiles (electron-rich aromatic, malonate, organosilicon, organoboron, organozinc, and organomagnesium compounds) was then achieved in a one-pot fashion, leading to the formation of 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4-diamines with the amino groups protected orthogonally as an amide/carbamate and an azide.

Transamidation reactions are often mediated by reactive substrates in the presence of overstoichiometric activating reagents and/or transition metal catalysts. Here we report the use of CO2as a traceless catalyst: in the presence of catalytic amounts of CO2, transamidation reactions were accelerated with primary, secondary, and tertiary amide donors. Various amine nucleophiles including amino acid derivatives were tolerated, showcasing the utility of transamidation in peptide modification and polymer degradation (e.g., Nylon-6,6). In particular,N,O-dimethylhydroxyl amides (Weinreb amides) displayed a distinct reactivity in the CO2-catalyzed transamidation versus a N2atmosphere. Comparative Hammett studies and kinetic analysis were conducted to elucidate the catalytic activation mechanism of molecular CO2, which was supported by DFT calculations. We attributed the positive effect of CO2in the transamidation reaction to the stabilization of tetrahedral intermediates by covalent binding to the electrophilic CO2
1,3-Difunctionalization of Aminocyclopropanes via Dielectrophilic Intermediates

We report an oxidative ring-opening strategy to transform acyl, sulfonyl or carbamate protected aminocyclopropanes into 1,3-dielectrophilic carbon intermediates bearing a halide atom (Br, I) and a N,O-acetal. Replacing the alkoxy group of the N,O-acetal can be achieved under acidic conditions through an elimination–addition pathway, while substitution of the halides by nucleophiles can be done under basic conditions through a SN2 pathway, generating a wide range of 1,3-difunctionalized propylamines. A proof of concept for asymmetric induction was realized using a chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) as catalyst, highlighting the potential of the method in enantioselective synthesis of important building blocks.
POTENTIAL CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM ACTIVE AGENTS. 3. SYNTHESIS OF SOME SUBSTITUTED BENZAMIDES AND PHENYLACETAMIDES.
Agwada
, p. 231 - 235 (2007/10/02)
The preparation and special properties (IR, **1H NMR) are given for 45 benzamides and 10 phenylacetamides substituted on nitrogen with allyl, benzhydryl, benzyl, or cyclopropyl groups, and variously substituted on the acyl part with halo, methoxyl, methyl, or nitro groups. The benzamide derivatives were synthesized by the Schotten-Baumann method, and the phenylacetamide derivatives were prepared by heating the appropriate N-benzhydrylammonium salt in o-xylene. Thirty-one of the compounds are new.
