L-Pipecolinic acid derived Lewis base organocatalyst for asymmetric reduction of N-aryl imines by trichlorosilane: Effects of the side amide group on catalytic performances

A series of N-formamides derived from pipecolinic acid have been synthesized and tested as Lewis base catalysts for the enantioselective reduction of N-aryl imines by trichlorosilane. Through the investigation of the structure-efficacy relationship between the side amide group and catalytic performance, several highly effective catalysts were discovered. In particular, arylamido-type catalyst 5i and non-arylamido-type catalyst 6c exhibited high reactivity and enantioselectivity, furnishing the reduction of a wide variety of N-aryl imines with high isolated yields (up to 98%) and ee values (up to 96%) under mild conditions. Moreover, these two catalysts complement each other in terms of their tolerances to nonaromatic ketimines and non-methyl ketimines. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.

(t-Bu)2PN=P(i-BuNCH2CH2)3N: New efficient ligand for palladium-catalyzed C-N couplings of aryl and heteroaryl bromides and chlorides and for vinyl bromides at room temperature

(Chemical Equation Presented) By employing Pd(OAc)2, Cs 2CO3, or NaOH, and the new ligand (t-Bu) 2PN=P(i-BuNCH2CH2)3N (3a), an electronically diverse array of aryl bromides and chlorides possessing base-sensitive substituents (nitro, ester, and keto) provide coupling products with bulky aryl amines in good to excellent yields. Aryl halides possessing other functional groups including cyano, amino, trifluoromethyl, and phenol, coupled with equal ease, producing highly functionalized amines in good to excellent yields. Moreover, an aryl chloro group can be preserved in the presence of a bromo substituent under our reaction conditions. BOC-protected amines also participated efficiently. Heterocyclic bromides and chlorides underwent clean couplings with amines in excellent yields. An important strength of our protocol is the use of lower palladium loadings than those reported earlier, without compromising yields. The air-stable palladium complex (η3-cinnamyl)PdCl·(3a) (5) was also employed successfully in C-N coupling reactions while the crotyl analogue was less efficacious. The 3a/Pd(OAc)2 catalyst system promotes, for the first time, efficient coupling of vinyl bromides with a variety of amines to produce imines and enamines at room temperature.
