Imidazole derivatives are revealed to be effective ligands in the Ru-catalyzed hydroesterification of alkenes using formates, affording one-carbonelongated esters in high yields. Further, intramolecular hydroesterification was successfully performed to give lactones for the first time. Imidazole derivatives can contribute to promote the reaction as well as to suppress the undesired decarbonylation of formate. Toxic CO gas, a directing group, and large excess alkenes are not required.

A variety of chiral and achiral imidazolium salts is synthesized. Methylene-, ethylene-, propylene- and pyridinyl-bridged bis(imidazolium) halides are used to generate the respective free chelating carbenes. The synthesis of palladium complexes of general formula [cis-CH2{NC(H)=C(H)N(R)C} 2PdX2] with these chelating N-heterocyclic carbene ligands is reported. Structural proofs of complexes 28 and 46 are represented by X-ray diffraction studies. Catalytic applications in the Mizoroki-Heck reaction are presented. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

The reactions of non-benzylic primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols with carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) afford the corresponding carbamates but not N-alkylimidazoles. For benzylic primary alcohols, formation of N-alkylimidazoles proceeds reasonably at 170 °C in several different solvents and occurs by way of the initially formed carbamate. However, under these rather forcing conditions, or even at lower reaction temperatures, elimination is a significant side reaction for benzylic secondary alcohols with β-hydrogen atoms. With one exception, reactions of six N,N-disubstituted β-aminoalcohols with CDI to form N-alkylimidazoles proceed under relatively mild conditions and may occur by way of an aziridinium intermediate.

This paper describes the superacid-catalyzed chemistry of olefinic amines and related compounds. A variety of olefinic amines are found to react with benzene in CF3SO3H (triflic acid) to give addition products in good yields (75-99%), including the pharmaceutical agents fenpiprane and prozapine. A general mechanism is proposed that invokes the formation of reactive, dicationic electrophiles and the direct observation of a diprotonated species is reported from low-temperature NMR experiments. This chemistry is also used to conveniently prepare functionalized polystyrene beads having pendant amine groups.

A series of N-substituted heteroaromatic compounds structurally related to clotrimazole was synthesized, and the effects of these compounds on ethosuximide clearance in rats were determined as a measure of their abilities to induce cytochrome P4503A (CYP3A) activity. Ethosuximide clearance and in vitro erythromycin N-demethylase activity were shown to correlate. In this series, imidazole or other related heteroaromatic 'head groups' were linked to triphenylmethane or other phenylmethane derivatives. Within the series, it was found that 1-triphenylmethane-substituted imidazoles elicited the greatest increase in CYP3A activity, and that among the triphenylmethyl-substituted imidazoles, the highest activities were achieved by the substitution of F- or Cl- in either the meta or para position of one of the phenyl rings. Diphenylmethylsubstituted pyridine was effectively devoid of activity. Compounds eliciting the largest increase in CYP3A activity (viz. 1-[(3-fluorophenyl)diphenylmethyl]imidazole, 1-[(4- fluorophenyl)diphenylmethyl]imidazole, and 1-[tri-(4- fluorophenyl)methyl]imidazole) produced little or no increase in ethoxyresorufin O-dealkylase (EROD) activity (i.e. CYP1A), whereas benzylimidazole, which elicited only a small increase in CYP3A activity, produced an almost 9-fold increase in CYP1A activity. For a series of eleven compounds exhibiting a wide range of influence on CYP3A activity, a positive correlation was found between ethosuximide clearance and hepatic CYP3A mRNA levels.
