An intermolecular aza-Wacker-type reaction was developed. When a readily available olefin was treated with a nitrogen nucleophile in the presence of a Pd-SPRIX complex and potassium persulfate, allylamine derivatives were obtained with high yield and excellent regioselectivity. The mechanistic studies showed that the reaction followed first-order dependence on the olefin as well as palladium catalyst, but zero-order dependence on the nitrogen nucleophile.

A practical and efficient approach for the synthesis of fluorescent 2,3-naphthalimide derivatives has been developed from readily available starting materials via an intramolecular didehydro-Diels-Alder reaction, which proceeded well under room temperature, exhibiting a wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. The practicability of this methodology has been verified by one-step synthesis of the environmentally sensitive fluorophore 6-DMN on a gram scale with a shorter time, fewer steps and less waste disposal, and without the utilization of toxic transition metals. The present experimental and computational studies support the crucial role of the propiolimide moiety in the transformation.

The asymmetric amination of secondary racemic allylic alcohols bears several challenges like the reactivity of the bi-functional substrate/product as well as of the α,β-unsaturated ketone intermediate in an oxidation-reductive amination sequence. Heading for a biocatalytic amination cascade with a minimal number of enzymes, an oxidation step was implemented relying on a single PQQ-dependent dehydrogenase with low enantioselectivity. This enzyme allowed the oxidation of both enantiomers at the expense of iron(III) as oxidant. The stereoselective amination of the α,β-unsaturated ketone intermediate was achieved with transaminases using 1-phenylethylamine as formal reducing agent as well as nitrogen source. Choosing an appropriate transaminase, either the (R)- or (S)-enantiomer was obtained in optically pure form (>98 % ee). The enantio-convergent amination of the racemic allylic alcohols to one single allylic amine enantiomer was achieved in one pot in a sequential cascade.

Direct reductive amination of prochiral ketones catalyzed by amine dehydrogenases is attractive in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Here, we report the protein engineering of L-Bacillus cereus amine dehydrogenase to allow reactivity on synthetically useful aromatic ketone substrates using an iterative, multiple-site alanine scanning mutagenesis approach. Mutagenesis libraries based on molecular docking, iterative alanine scanning, and double-proximity filter approach significantly expand the scope of active pharmaceutical ingredients relevant building blocks. The eventual quintuple mutant (A115G/T136A/L42A/V296A/V293A) showed reactivity toward aromatic ketones 12 a (5-phenyl-pentan-2-one) and 13 a (6-phenyl-hexan-2-one), which have not been reported to serve as targets of reductive amination by currently available amine dehydrogenases. Docking simulation and tunnel analysis provided valuable insights into the source of the acquired specificity and activity.

A sequential two-step chemoenzymatic methodology for the stereoselective synthesis of (3E)-4-(het)arylbut-3-en-2-amines in a highly selective manner and under mild reaction conditions is described. The approach consists of oxidation of the corresponding racemic alcohol precursors by the use of a catalytic system made up of the laccase from Trametes versicolor and the oxy-radical TEMPO, followed by the asymmetric reductive bio-transamination of the corresponding ketone intermediates. Optimisation of the oxidation reaction, exhaustive amine transaminase screening for the bio-transaminations and the compatibility of the two enzymatic reactions were studied in depth in search of a design of a compatible sequential cascade. This synthetic strategy was successful and the combinations of enzymes displayed a broad substrate scope, with 16 chiral amines being obtained in moderate to good isolated yields (29–75 %) and with excellent enantiomeric excess values (94 to >99 %). Interestingly, both amine enantiomers can be achieved, depending on the selectivity of the amine transaminase employed in the system.

Aliphatic primary amines are prevalent in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and functional materials. While a plethora of processes are reported for their synthesis, methods that directly install a free amine group into C(sp3)-H bonds remain unprecedented. Here, we report a set of new-to-nature enzymes that catalyze the direct primary amination of C(sp3)-H bonds with excellent chemo-, regio-, and enantioselectivity, using a readily available hydroxylamine derivative as the nitrogen source. Directed evolution of genetically encoded cytochrome P411 enzymes (P450s whose Cys axial ligand to the heme iron has been replaced with Ser) generated variants that selectively functionalize benzylic and allylic C-H bonds, affording a broad scope of enantioenriched primary amines. This biocatalytic process is efficient and selective (up to 3930 TTN and 96percent ee), and can be performed on preparative scale.

A series of vinylogous amphetamine analogs was synthesized and examined for their activity at biogenic amine transporters and serotonin-2 receptor (5-HT2) subtypes. (1S,3E)-1-Methyl-4-phenyl-but-3-enylamine (S-6) is a potent dual dopamine/serotonin (DA/5-HT) releaser with no activity at 5-HT2 receptors. This unique profile of actions suggests that analog S-6 is a viable lead compound for identifying new structural classes of DA/5-HT releasers with therapeutic benefit and reduced abuse liability.

An unprecedented deammoniative condensation reaction of primary allylic amines with nonallylic amines has been developed through C-N bond cleavage. In the presence of 5 mol% palladium diacetate, 10 mol% 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino) butane (dppb), and 5 mol% p-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH), a range of α-unbranched primary allylic amines smoothly underwent deammoniative condensation with nonallylic amines in an α-selective fashion to give structurally diverse secondary and tertiary amines in good to excellent yields and E selectivity. Replacing dppb with racemic 2,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1- binaphthyl (BINAP) permitted the deammoniative condensation of enantioenriched α-chiral primary allylic amines with nonallylic amines to proceed with complete retention of configuration. Electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometric analysis of the reaction mixture permitted the identification of some π-allylpalladium intermediates, and plausible mechanisms have been proposed to account for the regioselectivity and stereospecificity of the deammoniative condensation reaction. A range of enantioenriched primary allylic amines underwent palladium/acid-catalyzed direct substitution with nonallylic amines in a stereospecific manner. Copyright
