Copper-Catalyzed Cascade N-Dealkylation/N-Methyl Oxidation of Aromatic Amines by Using TEMPO and Oxygen as Oxidants

A novel tandem N-dealkylation and N-methyl aerobic oxidation of tertiary aromatic amines to N-arylformamides using copper and TEMPO has been developed. This methodology suggested an alternative synthetic route from N-methylarylamines to N-arylformamides.

Olefin functionalized IPr.HCl monomer as well as preparation method and application thereof

The invention relates to an olefin functionalized IPr.HCl monomer, a preparation method thereof, a method for preparing an N-heterocyclic carbene functionalized organic polymer (PS-IPr-x) by using the olefin functionalized IPr.HCl monomer, and application of the N-heterocyclic carbene functionalized organic polymer as a heterogeneous catalyst for catalyzing reduction N-formylation of carbon dioxide and amine. A heterogeneous catalyst is prepared by using cheap and easily available DVB as a polymerization cross-linking agent through an AIBN-initiated olefin polymerization method, and has the advantages of low preparation cost and simple preparation method. Meanwhile, the catalytic activity of the catalyst is obviously higher than that of reported catalysts, and the catalyst has a wide practical application prospect.

DMF·HCl as a versatile and straightforward N- and O-formylating agent

Inspired by the serendipitous isolation of N-formylpiperazines when we attempted the synthesis of a series of piperazines, we have developed a straightforward methodology for the N- and O- formylation of secondary cyclic amines, anilines and steroids, respectively. Such approach is based on the hitherto non-reported use of DMF·HCl complex, as a versatile and easily-available formylating system that can be stored without apparent loss of activity.

Acid-catalyzed chemodivergent reactions of 2,2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde and anilines

Chemodivergent reactions of 2,2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde and anilines were described, which were established on the basis of either a C[sbnd]C bond cleavage or a rearrangement process of a reaction intermediate. These reactions proceeded in a condition-determined manner with good functional group tolerance. In the first model, 2,2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde reacted with aniline to form a new C[sbnd]N bond, in the presence of O2, via a C[sbnd]C bond cleavage reaction. However, in the second model, by performing the reaction in the absence of O2, Heyns rearrangement occurred and generated a new C[sbnd]O bond to form methyl phenylglycinate. Such condition-determined reactions not only offered the new way for value-added conversion of biomass-derived platform molecule, 2, 2-dimethoxyacetaldehyde, but also provided efficient methods for the synthesis of N-arylformamides and methyl phenylglycinates.

Copper promoted aerobic oxidative c(sp3)-c(sp3) bond cleavage of n-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-ethyl)anilines

A strategy of aerobic oxidative C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage of N-ethylaniline derivatives bearing azaarenes for the synthesis of N-aryl formamides has been developed. This approach was carried out smoothly with the CuI/TEMPO/air system to give N-aryl formamides in yields of 50-90%. With this methodology, a mutagenically active compound was constructed in 90% yield. Moreover, the reaction also provided a one-pot synthetic tool for accessing a promoter of hematopoietic stem cells by difunctionalization in 61% yield.

A Practical Approach for the Transamidation of N, N-Dimethyl Amides with Primary Amines Promoted by Sodium tert-Butoxide under Solvent-Free Conditions

A practical sodium tert-butoxide (NaO t Bu)-mediated protocol is disclosed for the transamidation of various N, N-dimethyl amides with primary amines to afford the corresponding amides in moderate to good yields at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. This protocol features a facile work-up procedure and good functional group compatibility, especially for N, N-dimethyl amides with long-chain alkyl groups and heteroatom-containing amines. Notably, a few representative gram-scale reactions proceed smoothly to furnish the desired amides in high yields, which demonstrates the potential of this process for further practical applications. Several control experiments are carried out and a plausible mechanism is provided.

Tetracoordinate borates as catalysts for reductive formylation of amines with carbon dioxide

We report sodium trihydroxyaryl borates as the first robust tetracoordinate organoboron catalysts for reductive functionalization of CO2. These catalysts, easily synthesized from condensing boronic acids with metal hydroxides, activate main group element-hydrogen (E-H) bonds efficiently. In contrast to BX3 type boranes, boronic acids and metal-BAr4 salts, under transition metal-free conditions, sodium trihydroxyaryl borates exhibit high reactivity of reductive N-formylation toward a variety of amines (106 examples), including those with functional groups such as ester, olefin, hydroxyl, cyano, nitro, halogen, MeS-, ether groups, etc. The over-performance to catalyze formylation of challenging pyridyl amines affords a promising alternative method to the use of traditional formylation reagents. Mechanistic investigation supports electrostatic interactions as the key for Si/B-H activation, enabling alkali metal borates as versatile catalysts for hydroborylation, hydrosilylation, and reductive formylation/methylation of CO2.

NH4I-promoted N-acylation of amines via the transamidation of DMF and DMA under metal-free conditions

An unprecedented NH4I-promoted N-formylation and N-acetylization of various amines with dimethylformamide (DMF)and dimethylacetamide (DMA)has been developed. This protocol shows broad substrate scope for aromatic, aliphatic, and heterocyclic amines, which provides a metal-free strategy for N-acylation featuring mild reaction conditions, as well as inexpensive and readily available starting materials.

An efficient method for the N-formylation of amines under catalyst- and additive-free conditions

A simple catalyst- and additive-free method for the N-formylation of amines has been developed. The advantages of this protocol include a wide range of functional group tolerance, high efficiency and a lack of required extra promoters under mild conditions. This convenient strategy will provide a facile synthesis towards N-formamide natural products and pharmaceutical derivatives. A mechanism that involves difluorocarbene is proposed for this reaction.

Mn-Catalyzed Selective Double and Mono-N-Formylation and N-Methylation of Amines by using CO2

Functionalization of amines by using CO2 is of fundamental importance considering the abundance of amines and CO2. In this context, the catalytic formylation and methylation of amines represent convenient and successful protocols for selective CO2 utilization as a C1 building block. This study represents the first example of selective catalytic double N-formylation of aryl amines by using a dinuclear Mn complex in the presence of phenylsilane. This robust system also allows for selective formylation and methylation of amines under a range of conditions.
