A chiral disulfonimide (DSI)-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of N-alkyl imines with Hantzsch esters as a hydrogen source in the presence of Boc2O has been developed. The reaction delivers Boc-protected N-alkyl amines with excellent yields and enantioselectivity. The method tolerates a large variety of alkyl amines, thus illustrating potential for a general reductive cross-coupling of ketones with diverse amines, and it was applied in the synthesis of the pharmaceuticals (S)-Rivastigmine, NPS R-568 Hydrochloride, and (R)-Fendiline.

We report that n→π* interactions are operative in peptoids and play a major role in controlling amide isomerism. These interactions can be tuned using α-chiral amide side chains known to promote peptoid folding. To our knowledge, this is the first report of n→π* interactions between amides in non-prolyl systems. Furthermore, we have characterized an n→π* interaction between backbone carbonyls and side chain aromatic rings that can dramatically stabilize the cis-amides required for peptoid helix formation. The tunability of both types of n→π* interactions in peptoids has significant implications for peptoid folding and could be exploited for the design of new peptoid architectures. Copyright
