Convenient Access to Primary Amines by Employing the Barbier-Type Reaction of N-(Trimethylsilyl)imines Derived from Aromatic and Aliphatic Aldehydes
Gyenes, Ferenc,Bergmann, Kathryn E.,Welch, John T.
, p. 2824 - 2828 (2007/10/03)
A new versatile preparation of primary amines via benzylation of aromatic and aliphatic aldimines is described. Sonochemical and traditional methods for generation of the reactive intermediates are compared and contrasted. Competitive reactions were analyzed via free energy relationships to support the proposed alkylative mechanism.
Tandem Alkylation-Reduction of Nitriles. Synthesis of Branched Primary Amines
Weiberth, Franz J.,Hall, Stan S.
, p. 5338 - 5341 (2007/10/02)
Tandem alkylation-reduction of a series of nitriles by alkylating with Grignard reagents followed by reducing with lithium-ammonia afforded the corresponding branched primary amines in reasonable isolated yields.Alkyl and aromating nitriles and a variety of Grignard reagents have been employed in this convenient procedure.A mechanism for the reduction of the imine intermediate is suggested.
