Paragraph 0227-0230, (2019/08/07)
The invention discloses a method used for reduction of tertiary amide into alcohols and/or amines. The method comprises following steps: tertiary amide, an alkali metal reagent, and a proton donor agent are added into an organic solvent for a following reaction selectively: when the proton donor agent is a raw material alcohol and/or inorganic salt aqueous solution, the reaction product is an alcohol compound and/or tertiary amine compound. The method is capable of realizing selective reduction of tertiary amide into alcohols and tertiary amine compounds, the yield is high, the suitable rangeis wide, operation is safe and simple, the adopted raw materials are cheap and easily available; no precious metal catalyst, toxic silanes, and flammable and combustible metal hydrides are adopted; notoxic by product is generated; reaction is more friendly to the environment; problems in the prior art that amide compound reducing method operation is complex, conditions are strict, and control ofproducts is difficult are solved.

A practical and scalable single electron transfer reduction mediated by sodium dispersions has been developed for the reduction and reductive deuteration of tertiary amides. The chemoselectivity of this method highly depends on the nature of the proton donor. The challenging reduction via C-N bond cleavage has been achieved using Na/EtOH, affording alcohol products, while the use of Na/NaOH/H2O leads to the formation of amines via selective C-O scission. Sodium dispersions with high specific surface areas are crucial to obtain high yields and good chemoselectivity. This new method tolerates a range of tertiary amides. Moreover, the corresponding reductive deuterations mediated by Na/EtOD-d1 and Na/NaOH/D2O afford useful α,α-dideuterio alcohols and α,α-dideuterio amines with an excellent deuterium content.

A pseudoephedrine resin has been successfully employed in asymmetric alkylations on solid phase. Immobilized pseudoephedrine amides are conveniently prepared by the one-step attachment of pseudoephedrine to Merrifield resin through the hydroxyl group and subsequent acylation on nitrogen. Deprotonation and alkylation of the resin-bound amides proceeds smoothly. Ketones and alcohols are cleaved from the resin in high enantiomeric excess and moderate to good overall yield. The parallel, asymmetric solid-phase synthesis of a small library of chiral ketones and alcohols has been carried out to illustrate the utility of the approach. Finally, the pseudoephedrine resin can be conveniently recycled and utilized with no significant loss in the yield or enantiomeric excess of the products.
