Reductive Elimination to Form C(sp3)-N Bonds from Palladium(II) Primary Alkyl Complexes

Reductive eliminations to form alkyl-nitrogen bonds are rare, and examples of this reaction from isolated complexes containing simple, unstabilized primary alkyl groups have not been observed. We report the synthesis of stable neopentylpalladium(II) anilido and methyleneamido complexes that undergo reductive elimination to form the C(sp3)-N bonds in N-neopentyl anilines and N-neopentyl imines, respectively. The synthesis and isolation of these complexes were enabled by weak chelation of palladium by P,O ancillary ligands. DFT calculations suggest that neopentylpalladium(II) complexes undergo reductive elimination by a concerted mechanism resembling a migration of the alkyl ligand to the nitrogen either following initial dissociation of the oxygen donor or in concert with lengthening of the Pd-O bond, depending on the identities of the reacting and ancillary ligands.

Indenyl Rhodium Complexes with Arene Ligands: Synthesis and Application for Reductive Amination

An efficient protocol for synthesis of indenyl rhodium complexes with arene ligands has been developed. The hexafluoroantimonate salts [(σ5-indenyl)Rh(arene)](SbF6)2 (arene = benzene (2a), o-xylene (2b), mesitylene (2c), d

Reductive Amination by Photoredox Catalysis and Polarity-Matched Hydrogen Atom Transfer

The excitation of a RuII photosensitizer in the presence of ascorbic acid leads to the reduction of iminium ions to electron-rich α-aminoalkyl radical intermediates, which are rapidly converted into reductive amination products by thiol-mediated hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). As a result, the reductive amination of carbonyl compounds with amines by photoredox catalysis proceeds in good to excellent yields and with broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. The three key features of this work are 1) the rapid interception of electron-rich α-aminoalkyl radical intermediates by polarity-matched HAT in a photoredox reaction, 2) the method of reductive amination by photoredox catalysis itself, and 3) the application of this new method for temporally and spatially controlled reactions on a solid support, as demonstrated by the attachment of a fluorescent dye on an activated cellulose support by photoredox-catalyzed reductive amination.

Step-Economical Photoassisted Diversity-Oriented Synthesis: Sustaining Cascade Photoreactions in Oxalyl Anilides to Access Complex Polyheterocyclic Molecular Architectures

Ruthenium-catalyzed reductive amination without an external hydrogen source

A ruthenium-catalyzed reductive amination without an external hydrogen source has been developed using carbon monoxide as the reductant and ruthenium(III) chloride (0.008-2 mol %) as the catalyst. The method was applied to the synthesis of antianxiety agent ladasten.

Reductive amination without an external hydrogen source

A method of reductive amination without an external hydrogen source is reported. Carbon monoxide is used as the reductant. The reaction proceeds efficiently for a variety of carbonyl compounds and amines at low catalyst loadings and is mechanistically interesting as it does not seem to involve molecular hydrogen. Look, no H2! Reductive amination without an external hydrogen source has been developed using carbon monoxide as the reductant and rhodium acetate (0.2-1mol %) as catalyst. The method tolerates a variety of functional groups and provides target amines in good to excellent yields.

Bimolecular Nucleophilic Substitution (SN2) Reactions of Neopentyl Arenesulfonates with Anilines and Benzylamines in Methanol

Bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reactions of neopentyl arenesulfonates with anilines and benzylamines in methanol at 55.0 deg C are reported.The tightness of the transition state (TS) is similar to that for other typical SN2 processes at a primary alkyl carbon centre based on the magnitude of the cross-interaction constant ρxz (0.30) between the substituents in the nucleophile (X) and leaving group (Z).The TS variation is in accord with that predicted by the potential energy surface diagram, which in turn is consistent with the positive sign of ρxz; a later TS is obtained with a weaker nucleophile and nucleofuge.Taft's polar substituent constant, ?*, for the trimethylsilyl group is estimated to be -0.48 by using a factor of 1.875 for the fall-off of ?* from the tert-butyl to the neopentyl group and extrapolating from the experimental Taft plot.
