A new strategy for synthesis of polymeric supports with triazene linkers

A new strategy based on the use of diethylamine triazenes for stabilization and generation of polymer supported diazonium ions was described. New economical syntheses of four new polymeric supports with 3- and 6-carbon atom spacers and triazene linkers derived from meta- and para-aminophenol were described and compared to the traditional methods. The possible application of the polymer bound triazene masked diazonium salts as supports for immobilization of secondary amines (nortropine and 4-piperidinole and their esterification and oxidation), and as amine scavengers was shown. The new supports with meta-C₃-T2 and para-C₃-T2 linkers showed higher loadings and typically gave products with good yields and purities.

Synthesis of polymeric supports with spacer-modified triazene linkers: aldol and Grignard reactions of immobilized nortropinone

Four new polymeric supports with 3- and 6-carbon atom spacers and triazene linkers derived from meta- and para-aminophenol were synthesized from commercial Merrifield polymer. The supports could be used for immobilization of secondary amines in SPOS. A new strategy based on the use of diethylamine triazenes as masked precursors for the generation of polymer-supported diazonium ions was used. The performance of the new linkers was tested on Grignard and aldol reactions of solid-phase immobilized nortropinone. The new supports with C₃-T2 linkers gave products with better yields and purities than the classical T2 supports or the supports with the C₆-T2 linkers.     

Access to chiral tertiary amines via the iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of enamines

The asymmetric hydrogenation of N,N-dialkyl and N-alkyl-N-aryl enamines to chiral tertiary amines was studied.

The best catalyst produced a range of chiral tertiary amines in up to 87% ee.     

Highly efficient and diastereoselective gold(I)-catalyzed synthesis of tertiary amines from secondary amines and alkynes: substrate scope and mechanistic insights

An efficient method for the synthesis of tertiary amines through a gold(I)‐catalyzed tandem reaction of alkynes with secondary amines has been developed. In the presence of ethyl Hantzsch ester and [{(tBu)₂(o‐biphenyl)P}AuCl]/AgBF₄ (2 mol %), a variety of secondary amines bearing electron‐deficient and electron‐rich substituents and a wide range of alkynes, including terminal and internal aryl alkynes, aliphatic alkynes, and electron‐deficient alkynes, underwent a tandem reaction to afford the corresponding tertiary amines in up to 99 % yield. For indolines bearing a preexisting chiral center, their reactions with alkynes in the presence of ethyl Hantzsch ester catalyzed by [{(tBu)₂(o‐biphenyl)P}AuCl]/AgBF₄ (2 mol %) afforded tertiary amines in excellent yields and with good to excellent diastereoselectivity. All of these organic transformations can be conducted as a one‐pot reaction from simple and readily available starting materials without the need of isolation of air/moisture‐sensitive enamine intermediates, and under mild reaction conditions (mostly room temperature and mild reducing agents). Mechanistic studies by NMR spectroscopy, ESI‐MS, isotope labeling studies, and DFT calculations on this gold(I)‐catalyzed tandem reaction reveal that the first step involving a monomeric cationic gold(I)–alkyne intermediate is more likely than a gold(I)–amine intermediate, a three‐coordinate gold(I) intermediate, or a dinuclear gold(I)–alkyne intermediate. These studies also support the proposed reaction pathway, which involves a gold(I)‐coordinated enamine complex as a key intermediate for the subsequent transfer hydrogenation with a hydride source, and reveal the intrinsic stereospecific nature of these transformations observed in the experiments.

Tetraethyleneglycol diacrylate (TTEGDA)-crosslinked polystyrene resin as an efficient solid support for gel phase peptide synthesis

Various applications of the newly developed tetraethyleneglycol diacrylate (TTEGDA)-crosslinked polystyrene resin are illustrated by the synthesis of model peptides, fully protected peptides, peptide amides and biologically important sequences. PS-TTEGDA resin was prepared by suspension polymerization of styrene and TTEGDA and functionalized with chloromethyl, 4-cholromethyl-3-nitro, aminomethyl, α-bromopropionyl, a-aminopropionyl, 4-bromomethyl 3-nitrobenzamido, 4-aminomethyl-3-nitrobenzamido groups. Peptide synthesis was carried out using these modified resins by standard solid phase methodology. Coupling and deprotection in this synthetic strategy went to near completion showing the positive role of hydrophilic and flexible crosslinking agent TTEGDA in facilitating gelphase reactions. The peptides were removed from the support by photolysis, trifluoroaceticacid (TFA) treatment,trans-esterification or ammonolysis in high purity and yield. The crude peptides were purified by column chromatography/FPLC and characterized by aminoacid analysis, sequencing or¹H-NMR.

An improved procedure for the preparation of aminomethyl polystyrene resin and its use in solid phase (peptide) synthesis

2-Aminoethanol was used to successively replace hydrazine in the preparation of aminomethyl polystyrene resin thereby facilitating purification and by-product removal. The syntheses of the polypeptides ACP (65-74) and oxytocin demonstrated that the use of aminomethyl polystyrene resin prepared in this manner was equal to or better than that prepared using the hydrazine method.     

An efficient synthesis of tertiary amines from nitriles in aprotic solvents

Tertiary amines are utilized extensively as non-nucleophilic proton scavengers for a number of organic transformations. Herein we report the efficient syntheses of tertiary alkyl amines from their corresponding alkyl nitriles in the presence of a heterogeneous palladium catalyst and a source of dihydrogen in aprotic solvents. The reaction is atom economic, the conditions are mild, and the isolated yields are virtually quantitative. The degree of amine alkylation shows some solvent dependency; in polar protic solvents such as ethanol or methanol, the reaction affords a mixture of products with the secondary alkyl amine as the major product.     

Unexpected reactions of [60]fullerene involving tertiary amines and insight into the reaction mechanisms

Thermal reactions of [60]fullerene with amino acid ester hydrochlorides and triethylamine in o-dichlorobenzene at reflux afforded pyrrolidinofullerene derivatives containing the CH(3)CH moiety and originating from triethylamine through an unusual C-N bond cleavage. Detailed investigation of these thermal reactions resulted in the discovery of unprecedented reactions between C(60) and tertiary amines and of reactions of C(60) with tertiary amines and aldehydes, giving cyclopentafullerene derivatives with high stereoselectivity. Plausible reaction mechanisms for the product formation involving the uncommon C-N bond cleavage of tertiary amines were proposed on the basis of extensive experimental results.

A new protocol for the consecutive alpha- and beta-activation of propiolates towards electrophiles, involving conjugate addition of tertiary amines and intramolecular silyl migration

Herein, we present a novel approach for the consecutive alpha- and beta-activation of conjugated alkynes and demonstrate the application of this methodology towards the C-C bond-forming reactions of propiolates. This new concept is based on the 1,4-addition of a tertiary amine to a conjugated alkyne, followed by an aldol-type addition to an aldehyde and subsequent intramolecular silyl migration. This sequential process is generally applicable for 3-trimethylsilylpropiolates. The combination of methyl 3-trimethylsilylpropiolate, 1,4-diazobicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO), and aromatic aldehydes brought about domino-type C-C bond formations to afford highly functionalized olefins as the major products. On the other hand, aliphatic aldehydes, including the sterically demanding aromatic aldehyde, 2,6-dimethylbenzaldehyde, produced alkyne derivatives as the sole products from the reaction, presumably, by the reaction pathway common to the first cases. The intramolecular version of the reaction was successfully applied to the cyclization of trimethylsilylpropiolic esters derived from salicylaldehydes, leading to a new formylcoumarin synthesis. Studies of the reaction mechanisms are also described.
