Synthesis and structure of nitrones derived from 2-trifluoromethyl bornane 3-imines

Upon treatment with (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane (CF₃SiMe₃), 3-(N-alkyl or 3-N-aryl)imines of camphorquinone of type 1 smoothly undergo stereoselective conversion to yield 2-endo-trifluoromethylated 1:1 adducts 2, which, after subsequent desilylation with sodium borohydride in boiling alcoholic solutions, were converted into imino alcohols 3. Unexpectedly, oxidation of 3 with m-CPBA resulted in the formation of a new type of trifluoromethylated nitrones 5 (and not the expected oxaziridines) in a stereoselective manner. In the case of 5a, the (Z)-configuration of the CN double bond of the nitrone unit was unambiguously established by an X-ray crystal-structure determination. However, photolysis of 5a led to the exo,exo/exo,endo mixture of the isomeric oxaziridine 7; the two stereoisomers were separated chromatographically.     

Elemento-Organic Amines and Imines

Amines with mixed substituents containing two or three El? N bonds

1 El = a higher IVa, Va, or VIa element; by IVa, Va, and VIa elements are meant elements of the IV, V, and VI main groups of the periodic system

. are relatively stable if one or two of these bonds are (CH₃)₃ Si? N bonds. IR and ¹H? NMR studies indicate that the (p → d)π bond components of the element-nitrogen bonds steadily decrease from silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur toward their higher homologs. Because of the differences in the polarities of the element-nitrogen bonds, these substances can be used for selective insertion and cleavage reactions. The reaction of metalated N-silylaminoarsines with methyl chloride as well as the reaction of metalated N-trimethyl(IVa)-element-substituted amino-tert-butylphosphines with halogenotrimethyl(IVa) element compounds open new, simple routes for the conversion of elemento-organic amine systems into imine systems. The problem of reversible and irreversible (CH₃)₃ El ligand migration (1,3 shift) is discussed for trimethyl(IVa)element-substitued benzamidines, diaminophosphines, aminoiminophosphoranes, sulfinamides, and aminosulfimines.

Catalytic Atroposelective Synthesis of Axially Chiral Azomethine Imines and Neuroprotective Activity Evaluation

Azomethine imines, as a prominent class of 1,3-dipolar species, hold great significance and potential in organic and medicinal chemistry. However, the reported synthesis of centrally chiral azomethine imines relies on kinetic resolution, and the construction of axially chiral azomethine imines remains unexplored. Herein, we present the synthesis of axially chiral azomethine imines through copper- or chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed ring-closure reactions of N′-(2-alkynylbenzylidene)hydrazides, showcasing high efficiency, mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and excellent enantioselectivity. Furthermore, the biological evaluation revealed that the synthesized axially chiral azomethine imines effectively protect dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons by inhibiting apoptosis induced by oxaliplatin, offering a promising therapeutic approach for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Remarkably, the (S)- and (R)-atropisomers displayed distinct neuroprotective activities, underscoring the significance of axial stereochemistry.

Reactions of Dimethoxycarbene with N‐Tosylated Imines

The reactions of dimethoxycarbene (DMC; 2 ), which was generated in situ by thermal decomposition of 2,5‐dihydro‐2,2‐dimethoxy‐5,5‐dimethyl‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole ( 1 ), with N‐tosylated imines of xanthone and 2,3 : 6,7‐dibenzosuberenone, 3a and 3d , respectively, led to different adducts with rearranged skeletons. In the case of 3a , the 1 : 1 adduct 5 as well as the 2 : 1 adduct 6 were obtained (Scheme 2). The formation of both products can be explained by a migration of a MeO group of the DMC fragment in a zwitterionic intermediate. On the other hand, migration of a Me group of DMC is necessary for the formation of the two 1 : 1 adducts 13 and 14 of 2 and 3d (Scheme 5). The structures of all products have been established by X‐ray crystallography.

Amine Additives Greatly Expand the Scope of Asymmetric Hydrosilylation of Imines

Slow addition of a primary amine to the reaction mixture greatly increases the scope of the titanium-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of imines 1 . An important added feature of this method is that chiral secondary amines 2 can be obtained in much higher optical purity (up to 99 % ee) than would be predicted from the E:Z ratios of the starting imines 1 .     

Enantioselective Reductive (Hetero)Arylation of Cyclic N-Sulfonyl Imines by Cobalt Catalysis

Transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective addition of aryl organometallic reagents to imines has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for the formation of optically active diarylmethylamines. Here, we report the first asymmetric reductive (hetero)arylations of imines using aryl and heteroaryl halides enabled by a chiral cobalt-bisphosphine catalyst. This approach shows good functional group compatibility and complements the reported strategy without use of organometallic reagents. Mechanistic investigations supported that aryl-cobalt, instead of an arylzinc reagent, was formed in situ in this reductive aryl-addition event.

Strain‐Induced Reactivity in the Dynamic Covalent Chemistry of Macrocyclic Imines

The displacement of molecular structures from their thermodynamically most stable state by imposition of various types of electronic and conformational constraints generates highly strained entities that tend to release the accumulated strain energy by undergoing either structural changes or chemical reactions. The latter case amounts to strain‐induced reactivity (SIR) that may enforce specific chemical transformations. A particular case concerns dynamic covalent chemistry which may present SIR, whereby reversible reactions are activated by coupling to a high‐energy state. We herewith describe such a dynamic covalent chemical (DCC) system involving the reversible imine formation reaction. It is based on the formation of strained macrocyclic bis‐imine metal complexes in which the macrocyclic ligand is in a high energy form enforced by the coordination of the metal cation. Subsequent demetallation generates a highly strained free macrocycle that releases its accumulated strain energy by hydrolysis and reassembly into a resting state. Specifically, the metal‐templated condensation of a dialdehyde with a linear diamine leads to a bis‐imine [1+1]‐macrocyclic complex in which the macrocyclic ligand is in a coordination‐enforced strained conformation. Removal of the metal cation by a competing ligand yields a highly reactive [1+1]‐macrocycle, which then undergoes hydrolysis to transient non‐cyclic aminoaldehyde species, which then recondense to a strain‐free [2+2]‐macrocyclic resting state. The process can be monitored by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. Energy differences between different conformational states have been evaluated by Hartree–Fock (HF) computations. One may note that the stabilisation of high‐energy molecular forms by metal ion coordination followed by removal of the latter, offers a general procedure for producing out‐of‐equilibrium molecular states, the fate of which may then be examined, in particular when coupled to dynamic covalent chemical processes.     

Mechanistic Insight into Hydroboration of Imines from Combined Computational and Experimental Studies

Boron Lewis acid-catalyzed and catalyst-free hydroboration reactions of imines are attractive due to the mild reaction conditions. In this work, the mechanistic details of the hydroboration reactions of two different kinds of imines with pinacolborane (HBpin) are investigated by combining density functional theory calculations and some experimental studies. For the hydroboration reaction of N-(α-methylbenzylidene)aniline catalyzed by tris[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borane (BAr^F₃), our calculations show that the reaction proceeds through a boron Lewis acid-promoted hydride transfer mechanism rather than the classical Lewis acid activation mechanism. For the catalyst- and solvent-free hydroboration reaction of imine, N-benzylideneaniline, our calculations and experimental studies indicate that this reaction is difficult to occur under the reaction conditions reported previously. With a combination of computational and experimental studies, we have established that the commercially available BH₃ ⋅ SMe₂ can serve as an efficient catalyst for the hydroboration reactions of N-benzylideneaniline and similar imines. The hydroboration reactions catalyzed by BH₃ ⋅ SMe₂ are most likely to proceed through a hydroboration/B−H/B−N σ-bond metathesis pathway, which is very different from that of the reaction catalyzed by BAr^F₃.

Alkyl Formates as Transfer Hydroalkylation Reagents and Their Use in the Catalytic Conversion of Imines to Alkylamines**

Easily accessible via a simple esterification of alcohols with formic acid, alkyl formates are used as a novel class of transfer hydroalkylation reagents, CO₂ acting as a traceless linker. As a proof-of-concept, their reactivity in the transfer hydroalkylation of imines is investigated, using a ruthenium-based catalyst and LiI as promoter to cleave the C−O σ-bond of the formate scaffold. Providing tertiary amines, the reaction displays a divergent regioselectivity compared to previously reported transfer hydroalkylation strategies.
