Palladium-Catalyzed Reductive Aminocarbonylation of Benzylammonium Triflates with o-Nitrobenzaldehydes for the Synthesis of 3-Arylquinolin-2(1 H)-ones

A palladium-catalyzed straightforward procedure for the synthesis of 3-arylquinolin-2(1H)-ones has been developed. The synthesis proceeds through a palladium-catalyzed reductive aminocarbonylation reaction of benzylic ammonium triflates with o-nitrobenzaldehydes, and a wide range of 3-arylquinolin-2(1H)-ones was obtained in moderate to good yields with very good functional group compatibility.

Cu2O-catalyzed C–S coupling of quaternary ammonium salts and sodium alkane-/arene-sulfinates

A new protocol for the synthesis of (enantioenriched) benzylic sulfones via the Cu2O-catalyzed C–S bond cross coupling of alkane-/arene-sulfinates and (enantioenriched) benzylic quaternary ammonium salts has been developed. The product benzylic sulfones were obtained in good to high yields (75–96%). Chiral arylmethyl sulfones with high enantiomeric excess (90–94% ee) were also synthesized in the presence of Cu2O and 1,1′-bis-(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf).

Methyl-Selective α-Oxygenation of Tertiary Amines to Formamides by Employing Copper/Moderately Hindered Nitroxyl Radical (DMN-AZADO or 1-Me-AZADO)

Methyl-selective α-oxygenation of tertiary amines is a highly attractive approach for synthesizing formamides while preserving the amine substrate skeletons. Therefore, the development of efficient catalysts that can advance regioselective α-oxygenation at the N-methyl positions using molecular oxygen (O2) as the terminal oxidant is an important subject. In this study, we successfully developed a highly regioselective and efficient aerobic methyl-selective α-oxygenation of tertiary amines by employing a Cu/nitroxyl radical catalyst system. The use of moderately hindered nitroxyl radicals, such as 1,5-dimethyl-9-azanoradamantane N-oxyl (DMN-AZADO) and 1-methyl-2-azaadamanane N-oxyl (1-Me-AZADO), was very important to promote the oxygenation effectively mainly because these N-oxyls have longer life-times than less hindered N-oxyls. Various types of tertiary N-methylamines were selectively converted to the corresponding formamides. A plausible reaction mechanism is also discussed on the basis of experimental evidence, together with DFT calculations. The high regioselectivity of this catalyst system stems from steric restriction of the amine-N-oxyl interactions.

Reductive Coupling between C-N and C-O Electrophiles

The cross-electrophile reaction is a promising strategy for C-C bond formation. Recent studies have focused mainly on reactions with organic halides. Here we report a coupling reaction between C-N and C-O electrophiles that demonstrates the possibility of constructing a C-C bond via C-N and C-O cleavage. Several reactions between benzyl/aryl ammonium salts and vinyl/aryl C-O electrophiles have been studied. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that the benzyl ammoniums were activated through a radical mechanism.

Electrochemical Dehydrogenative Imidation of N-Methyl-Substituted Benzylamines with Phthalimides for the Direct Synthesis of Phthalimide-Protected gem-Diamines

A general and green electrochemical dehydrogenative method for the imidation of N-methyl benzylamines with phthalimides with excellent regioselectivities is reported for the first time. This operationally simple method offers a valuable tool to obtain str

Efficient and versatile catalytic systems for the n-methylation of primary amines with methanol catalyzed by n-heterocyclic carbene complexes of iridium

Efficient and versatile catalytic systems were developed for the N-methylation of both aliphatic and aromatic primary amines using methanol as the methylating agent. Iridium complexes bearing an Nheterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand exhibited high catalytic performance for this type of transformation. For aliphatic amines, selective N,N-dimethylation was achieved at low temperatures (50-90 °C). For aromatic amines, selective N-monomethylation and selective N,N-dimethylation were accomplished by simply changing the reaction conditions (presence or absence of a base with an appropriate catalyst). These findings can be used to develop methods for synthesizing useful amine compounds having N-methyl or N,N-dimethyl moieties.

Towards a general ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of secondary and tertiary amides to amines

A broad range of secondary and tertiary amides has been hydrogenated to the corresponding amines under mild conditions using an in situ catalyst generated by combining [Ru(acac)3], 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (Triphos) and Yb(OTf)3. The presence of the metal triflate allows to mitigate reaction conditions compared to previous reports thus improving yields and selectivities in the desired amines. The excellent isolated yields of two scale-up experiments corroborate the feasibility of the reaction protocol. Control experiments indicate that, after the initial reduction of the amide carbonyl group, the reaction proceeds through the reductive amination of the alcohol with the amine arising from collapse of the intermediate hemiaminal.

Dual antitumor and antiangiogenic activity of organoplatinum(II) complexes

A library of over 20 cycloplatinated compounds of the type [Pt(dmba-R)LCl] (dmba-R = C,N-dimethylbenzylamine-like ligand; R being MeO, Me, H, Br, F, CF3, and NO2 substituents in the R5 or R4 position of the phenyl ring; L = DMSO and P(C6H4CF3-p)3) has been prepared. All compounds are active in both human ovarian carcinoma A2780 cells and cisplatin-resistant A2780cisR cells, with most of the DMSO platinum complexes exhibiting IC50 values in the submicromolar range in the A2780 cell line. Interestingly, DMSO platinum complexes show low cytotoxicity in the nontumorigenic kidney cell line BGM and therefore high selectivity factors SF. In addition, some of the DMSO platinum complexes effectively inhibit angiogenesis in the human umbilical vein endothelial cell line EA.hy926. These are the first platinum(II) complexes reported to inhibit angiogenesis at a close concentration to their IC50 in A2780 cells, turning them into dual cytotoxic and antiangiogenic compounds.

Cu(II)-promoted palladium-catalyzed C-H ortho-arylation of N, N-dimethylbenzylamines

LiCl-Promoted Pd(ii)-catalyzed ortho carbonylation of N,N- dimethylbenzylamines

Palladium-catalyzed highly regioselective carbonylation of substituted N,N-dimethylbenzylamines with the assistance of LiCl was developed. The ortho-functionalized N,N-dimethylbenzylamine was further transformed into ortho-methyl benzoate under mild conditions. These two transformations could be combined into one pot to produce the desired product in moderate yield. Applications of this methodology to synthesize the fragments of variolaric acid were also studied.
