Oxidative entry to α-oxy N-acyl aminals and hemiaminals: efficient formation of 2-(N-acylaminal) substituted tetrahydropyrans

An efficient new method to synthesize α-oxy N-acyl aminals and hemiaminals in a single step from readily synthesized N-acyl enamines has been developed using PhI(OAc)₂ as the oxidant. The reaction conditions are very mild and the products are obtained in good yields (65-92%). A possible mechanistic pathway is laid out.

α-Oxolactam enamines as new synthons in the Nenitzescu reaction

-Oxolactam enamines, namely, 3-piperidino-5,6-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-one (1a) and 3-piperidino-1,5,6,7-tetrahydroazepin-2-one (1b), were introduced for the first time into the Nenitzescu reaction. The processes yield cyclic adducts 3a—e, 6. On heating in acetic acid, they are transformed into benzofuropyridone 7 and benzofuroazepinones 10a,d, and 12 and, unexpectedly, into chromenopyrrole 8 and chromenopyridines 9a—d and 11.     

One-pot synthesis of cyclopentane-fused 5'-aryl-4-cycloalkylamino-2,2'-bipyridines via the aza-Diels–Alder/SNipso reactions

One-pot synthesis of cyclopentane-fused 5'-aryl-4- cycloalkylamino-2,2'-bipyridines based on the neat (200 °C) reaction of 3-(4-bromopyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazines with enamines is reported. In the course of the transformation, consecutive aza-Diels–Alder reaction and nucleophilic substitution of bromine atom under the action of the liberating amine occur. The possibility of the solvent- and catalyst-free replacement of 4-positioned bromine atom in 2,2'-bipyridines by amino moieties was demonstrated.     

Studies on 2-Aminothiophenes: Synthesis,Transformations, and Biological Evaluation of Functionally-Substituted Thiophenes and Their Fused Derivatives

Abstract

Heterocyclic enamines1 reacted with ethyl acetoacetate to afford the corresponding amide derivatives2. Treatment of2 with carbon disulphide yielded the dipotassium salts3which reacted in-situ with a variety of α -haloketones to give the respective substituted thiophenes5,8, and13. The reactivity of the latter products towards various chemical reagents was studied to yield their fused thiophene derivatives7,10,12, and14, respectively. Some representative compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity.     

Very Simple One-Step Synthesis of Vinylphosphonates and Enamine Phosphonates by Direct Addition of Organolithium Reagents to 1-Alkynylphosphonates

Abstract

Direct addition of organolithium to 1-alkynylphosphonates (1) afforded vinylphosphonates and enamine phosphonates (2) in good to excellent yields. The reaction was carried out in dry THF at low temperature and proved to be completely stereoselective (syn addition). Alkyl, aryl, and haloalkyl groups were attached to the alkynyl entity, so the resulting vinylphosphonates contained various functional groups. The stereochemistry of the products as well as mechanism of the reaction were determined based on ¹H and ¹³C NMR. The synthesis of enamine phosphonates in the absence of complicated, highly expensive organometallic catalysis has not been previously reported.     

Synthesis of Substituted Tricyclo[5.3.1.04,9]undecan‐2,6‐dione from 4,4‐Disubstituted Cyclohexanone Enamines and Methacryloyl Chloride

Morpholine enamines 4‐acetyl‐4‐methyl‐1‐morpholinocyclohexene 4a, 4‐acetyl‐4‐phenyl‐1‐morpholinocyclohexene 4b, and 4‐acetyl‐4‐isopropenyl‐1‐morpholinocyclohexene 4c react with methacryloyl chloride to give 1,7‐dimethyl‐4(N‐morpholino) tricyclo[5.3.1.0^4,9]undecan‐2,6‐dione 9a , 1‐phenyl‐7‐methyl‐4(N‐morpholino) tricyclo[5.3.1.0^4,9]undecan‐2,6‐dione 9b , and 1‐ispropenyl‐7‐methyl‐4(N‐morpholino) tricyclo[5.3.1.0^4,9]undecan‐2,6‐dione 9c respectively, along with the corresponding substituted adamandane‐2,4‐diones.

An efficient iodine-mediated cascade synthesis of 3-aza-bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-ene derivatives from easily prepared N-allyl enamines has been developed. The advantages of the reaction include facilitative preparation of substrates 3a–t, good functional group tolerance and transition-metal-free conditions.
