Enantiomerically pure 1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethylamine (1), which is a key intermediate of new phenyl carbamate drugs, was obtained by a diastereomeric method with high resolution efficiency (E) by using enantiomerically pure mandelic acid (2) as a resolving agent.The first crystallization of the mixture of diastereomeric salts from methanol gave a less-soluble diastereomeric salt in 70percent yield with 99percent diastereomeric excess.Recrystallization of the salt from 2-propanol gave (R)-1*(R)-2 in 97percent yield with 100percent diastereomeric excess (total E=68percent).The crystal structure of the less-soluble diastereomeric salt, (R)-1*(R)-2, was determined by X-ray crystallography.The crystal data are: Monoclinic, space group P21, a=12.642(4), b=5.890(2), c=10.855(4) Angstroem, β=103.68(3) deg, V=785.4(5) Angstroem3, Z=2, R=0.058 for 1450 unique reflections.The X-ray crystallography revealed that the high resolution efficiency was due to a layer-like arrangement of the enantiomerically pure acids, of which two layers sandwiched a layer of the amines by hydrogen bonds, as well as the helical column formed by hydrogen bonds between the acids and the amines, as observed for the less-soluble diastereomeric salt of 1-phenylethylamine with mandelic acid.

A highly enantioselective kinetic resolution of sterically hindered benzylamines has been achieved for the first time through transition-metal-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation, in which the new KR strategy offered a new approach to afford chiral isoindolinones (er up to 97?:?3) and the origin of chemoselectivity and stereoselectivity was confirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations.
Oxidation Under Reductive Conditions: From Benzylic Ethers to Acetals with Perfect Atom-Economy by Titanocene(III) Catalysis

Described here is a titanocene-catalyzed reaction for the synthesis of acetals and hemiaminals from benzylic ethers and benzylic amines, respectively, with pendant epoxides. The reaction proceeds by catalysis in single-electron steps. The oxidative addition comprises an epoxide opening. An H-atom transfer, to generate a benzylic radical, serves as a radical translocation step, and an organometallic oxygen rebound as a reductive elimination. The reaction mechanism was studied by high-level dispersion corrected hybrid functional DFT with implicit solvation. The low-energy conformational space was searched by the efficient CREST program. The stereoselectivity was deduced from the lowest lying benzylic radical structures and their conformations are controlled by hyperconjugative interactions and steric interactions between the titanocene catalyst and the aryl groups of the substrate. An interesting mechanistic aspect is that the oxidation of the benzylic center occurs under reducing conditions.

We report the synthesis of in situ generated cobalt nanoparticles from molecularly defined complexes as efficient and selective catalysts for reductive amination reactions. In the presence of ammonia and hydrogen, cobalt-salen complexes such as cobalt(ii)-N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine produce ultra-small (2-4 nm) cobalt-nanoparticles embedded in a carbon-nitrogen framework. The resulting materials constitute stable, reusable and magnetically separable catalysts, which enable the synthesis of linear and branched benzylic, heterocyclic and aliphatic primary amines from carbonyl compounds and ammonia. The isolated nanoparticles also represent excellent catalysts for the synthesis of primary, secondary as well as tertiary amines including biologically relevant N-methyl amines.

The development of base metal catalysts for industrially relevant amination and hydrogenation reactions by applying abundant and atom economical reagents continues to be important for the cost-effective and sustainable synthesis of amines which represent highly essential chemicals. In particular, the synthesis of primary amines is of central importance because these compounds serve as key precursors and central intermediates to produce value-added fine and bulk chemicals as well as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and materials. Here we report a Ni-triphos complex as the first Ni-based homogeneous catalyst for both reductive amination of carbonyl compounds with ammonia and hydrogenation of nitroarenes to prepare all kinds of primary amines. Remarkably, this Ni-complex enabled the synthesis of functionalized and structurally diverse benzylic, heterocyclic and aliphatic linear and branched primary amines as well as aromatic primary amines starting from inexpensive and easily accessible carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) and nitroarenes using ammonia and molecular hydrogen. This Ni-catalyzed reductive amination methodology has been applied for the amination of more complex pharmaceuticals and steroid derivatives. Detailed DFT computations have been performed for the Ni-triphos based reductive amination reaction, and they revealed that the overall reaction has an inner-sphere mechanism with H2metathesis as the rate-determining step.

Thirty-six novel threoninamide carbamate derivatives were designed and synthesised using active fragment-based pharmacophore model. Antifungal activities of these compounds were tested against Oomycete fungi Phytophthora capsici in vitro and in vivo. Interestingly, compound I-1, I-2, I-3, I-6 and I-7 exhibited moderate control effect (>50%) against Pseudoperonospora cubensis in greenhouse at 6.25 μg/mL, which is better than that of control. Meanwhile most of these compounds exhibited significant inhibitory against P. capsici. The other nine fungi were also tested. More importantly, some compounds exhibited remarkably high activities against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, P. piricola and R. solan in vitro with EC50 values of 3.74–9.76 μg/mL. It is possible that the model is reliabile and this method can be used to discover lead compounds for the development of fungicides.

The Rh(III)-catalyzed coupling of N-chloroimines with alkynes for the efficient synthesis of isoquinolines is reported. This represents the first use of the N-Cl bond of N-chloroimines as an internal oxidant for construction of the isoquinoline skeleton. The synthesis features atom and step economy, a green solvent (EtOH), mild reaction conditions, and a broad substrate scope.

A series of chiral 2-hydroxy ethyl/benzyl benzimidazole based aryl triazole tweezers have been prepared using click chemistry in high yields. Chiral pool strategy has been used to obtain the benzimidazole-based tweezers in very high enantiomerically enriched form. The aryl triazole tweezers, S-(?)-5a and S-(+)-8a displayed a high degree of selectivity for iodide anion over other anions, including other halides. The aryl triazole tweezers, S-(?)-5a and S-(+)-8a display significant enantio-discrimination for chiral amines. The chiral recognition studies were carried out using UV and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. NMR analysis has been used for establishing the sites for ligation of the iodide anion.

A biocatalytic cascade process was developed using immobilized cells of the wild type yeast Candida albicans CCT 0776 in calcium alginate beads and a commercially available ketoreductase. The aim was to promote deracemization by stereoinversion of (±)-1-arylethanols in high substrate concentration (above 100 mmol L-1) to prepare the (R)-enantiomers of the alcohols (90-99percent), with a high enantiomeric excess (83-99percent) after 2 to 19 h. The (R)-1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethanol, with 70percent yield and 91percent ee, obtained after 5 h was used to prepare (S)-1-(3-methoxyphenyl)-ethylamine with 60percent yield and 91percent ee after two steps, a key intermediate in the synthesis of (S)-rivastigmine.

An iridium-catalyzed diastereoselective amination of alcohols with chiral tert-butanesulfinamide was developed under basic conditions, affording the optically active secondary sulfinamides in high yields and diastereoselectivities. The removal of the sulfinyl group from sulfonamides allowed a facile access to a wide range of α-chiral primary amines. This synthetic strategy was further applied in the synthesis of the marketed pharmaceuticals (S)-rivastigmine and NPS R-568.
