Herein, a sequential and selective chemoenzymatic approach is described involving the metal-catalysed Wacker-Tsuji oxidation of allylbenzenes followed by the amine transaminase-catalysed biotransamination of the resulting 1-arylpropan-2-ones. Thus, a series of nine optically active 1-arylpropan-2-amines were obtained with good to very high conversions (74–92%) and excellent selectivities (>99% enantiomeric excess) in aqueous medium. The Wacker-Tsuji reaction has been exhaustively optimised searching for compatible conditions with the biotransamination experiments, using palladium(II) complexes as catalysts and iron(III) salts as terminal oxidants in aqueous media. The compatibility of palladium/iron systems for the chemical oxidation with commercially available and made in house amine transaminases was analysed, finding ideal conditions for the development of a general and stereoselective cascade sequence. Depending on the selectivity displayed by selected amine transaminase, it was possible to produce both 1-arylpropan-2-amines enantiomers under mild reaction conditions, compounds that present therapeutic properties or can be employed as synthetic intermediates of chiral drugs from the amphetamine family.

The photoaminations of trans-1-arylpropenes and 7-methoxy-1,2-dihydronaphthalenes with ammonia in the presence of dicyanobenzene gave 1-aryl-2-propylamines and 2-amino-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalenes, respectively. The yields of the aminated compounds were improved by the addition of 1,3,5-triphenylbenzene or m-terphenyl.

Reaction of 6,7-dialkoxy-1-alkyl-3,4-dihydro-3-methylisoquinolines (10 - 12) with sulphinamide anhydride (13) yields 2,3-dialkoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-6-methyl-8-oxoisoquinolinoquinazolines (14 and 19) and 2,3-dialkoxy-13a-alkyl-5,6,7,8,13,13a-hexahydro-6-methyl-8-oxoisoquinolinoquinazolines (15 - 17 and 20).Of the two possible geometrical isomers of the latter class of compounds, the cis-isomer predominates and the trans-isomer is found to be labile towards aerial oxidation.No evidence for the generation of iminoketene (21) is obtained in the reaction of sulphinamide anhydride (13) with various 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline derivatives.
