Various cis-β-phosphinolactams are synthesized stereoselectively for the first time from imines and diazo(aryl)methyl(diaryl)phosphine oxides under microwave irradiation. Diazo(aryl)methyl(diaryl)phosphine oxides first undergo the Wolf rearrangement to generate phosphenes. Imines nucleophilically attack the phosphenes followed by an intramolecular nucleophilic addition via less steric transition states to give final cis-β-phosphinolactams. C-Styrylimines generally give rise to β-phosphinolactams in higher yields than C-arylimines. The stereoselectivity and proposed mechanism are rationalized by DFT theoretical calculation.
Iron-Catalyzed Hydrogen Transfer Reduction of Nitroarenes with Alcohols: Synthesis of Imines and Aza Heterocycles

, p. 1023 - 1036 (2021/01/09)
A straightforward and selective reduction of nitroarenes with various alcohols was efficiently developed using an iron catalyst via a hydrogen transfer methodology. This protocol led specifically to imines in 30-91% yields, with a good functional group tolerance. Noticeably, starting from o-nitroaniline derivatives, in the presence of alcohols, benzimidazoles can be obtained in 64-72% yields when the reaction was performed with an additional oxidant, DDQ, and quinoxalines were prepared from 1,2-diols in 28-96% yields. This methodology, unprecedented at iron for imines, also provides a sustainable alternative for the preparation of quinoxalines and benzimidazoles.

Due to the excellent catalytic activities and phosphorescent properties that iridium complexes display, iridium chemistry has been of great interest for scientific investigation over the past 30 years. Iridium metallacycle analogues (also known as an iridacycles) bearing phenylpyridine (ppy) ligands have been well reported on, whilst complexes with R-phenyl-(3-R-phenylallylidene)amine, which is an α,β-conjugated Schiff base ligand, have not had the same attention, despite the fact that both ligands share a similar coordination mode. In this research, four pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iridacycle complexes, Ir1a-Ir1d, with different α,β-conjugated Schiff base ligands were synthesized from a di-μ-chloro-dichloro-bis-(η5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)diiridium(III) precursor. The iridacycle complexes were characterized using spectroscopic techniques and the molecular structures of Ir1ab-Ir1d were determined using X-ray crystallography. The X-ray results revealed that the iridacycle complexes have a tetrahedral geometry, the iridium centre being coordinated through the N[dbnd]C[sbnd]Cα[dbnd]Cβ moiety of the α,β-conjugated Schiff base ligand. Computational calculations with the B3LYP method and with LanL2DZ basis sets indicated that the HOMO-LUMO energy gaps Ir1b-Ir1d were in the range 3.31–3.36 eV. The OMe substituent at the C terminal has a greater impact on the HOMO energy level than the one at the N terminal.

A versatile and highly stereoselective borylative cyclization to generate polyfunctionalized γ-lactams has been developed. The stereoselective synthesis of these key ring systems is crucial due to their ubiquity in natural products. We report the diastero- and enantioselective construction of di- and trisubstituted γ-lactam cores, with examples containing an enantioenriched quaternary carbon.

Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) have recently been advanced as efficient metal-free catalysts for catalytic hydrogenation, but their performance in chemoselective hydrogenation, particularly in heterogeneous systems, has not yet been achieved. Herein, we demonstrate that, via tailoring the pore environment within metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), FLPs not only can be stabilized but also can develop interesting performance in the chemoselective hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated organic compounds, which cannot be achieved with FLPs in a homogeneous system. Using hydrogen gas under moderate pressure, the FLP anchored within a MOF that features open metal sites and hydroxy groups on the pore walls can serve as a highly efficient heterogeneous catalyst to selectively reduce the imine bond in α,β-unsaturated imine substrates to afford unsaturated amine compounds.

A series of 1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-diol (SPINOL) analogues bearing a 2,2′-dimethyl-, cyclopentyl-, or cyclohexyl-fused ring were synthesized, and their distinct structural features were elucidated by X-ray crystallography. On the basis of these scaffolds, chiral monophosphoramidite ligands 6 a–m were synthesized, which demonstrated excellent enantioselectivity in RhI-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of a dehydro amino acid methyl ester. Ligands 6 a–m were also successfully applied in the RhI-catalyzed enantioselective [4+2] cycloaddition of α,β-unsaturated imines with isocyanates, which afforded the corresponding pyrimidinones in good yields (60–92 %) with high enantioselectivities (75–92 % ee).

The borrowing hydrogen strategy has been applied to the ethylation of imines with an air-stable iron complex as precatalyst. This approach opens new perspectives in this area as it enables the synthesis of unsymmetric tertiary amines from readily available substrates and ethanol as a C2 building block. A variety of imines bearing electron-rich aryl or alkyl groups at the nitrogen atom could be efficiently reductively alkylated without the need for molecular hydrogen. The mechanism of this reaction, which shows complete selectivity for ethanol over other alcohols, has been studied experimentally and by means of DFT computations.

Here we report the catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) of non-activated imines promoted by a Fe-catalyst in the absence of Lewis acid co-catalysts. Use of the (cyclopentadienone)iron complex 1, which is much more active than the classical ‘Kn?lker complex’ 2, allowed to reduce a number of N-aryl and N-alkyl imines in very good yields using iPrOH as hydrogen source. The reaction proceeds with relatively low catalyst loading (0.5–2 mol%) and, remarkably, its scope includes also ketimines, whose reduction with a Fe-complex as the only catalyst has little precedents. Based on this methodology, we developed a one-pot CTH protocol for the reductive amination of aldehydes/ketones, which provides access to secondary amines in high yield without the need to isolate imine intermediates. (Figure presented.).
