Continuous-flow synthesis of primary amines: Metal-free reduction of aliphatic and aromatic nitro derivatives with trichlorosilane
نویسندگان
چکیده
The metal-free reduction of nitro compounds to amines mediated by trichlorosilane was successfully performed for the first time under continuous-flow conditions. Aromatic as well as aliphatic nitro derivatives were converted to the corresponding primary amines in high yields and very short reaction times with no need for purification. The methodology was also extended to the synthesis of two synthetically relevant intermediates (precursors of baclofen and boscalid).

متن کاملSelective N-alkylation of amines using nitriles under hydrogenation conditions: facile synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines.
Nitriles were found to be highly effective alkylating reagents for the selective N-alkylation of amines under catalytic hydrogenation conditions. For the aromatic primary amines, the corresponding secondary amines were selectively obtained under Pd/C-catalyzed hydrogenation conditions. Although the use of electron poor aromatic amines or bulky nitriles showed a lower reactivity toward the reduc...

Several cycline dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) inhibitors with different chemical structures have been introduced. The hinge region of CDK2 (residues 81–84) contains a set of hydrogen bond donor and acceptor sites some of which must be satisfied for potent inhibitor binding. The benzimidazolone skeleton may provide such interactions. Accordingly, 3-sulfonamide substituted benzamido-benzimidazolones ...

A catalyst-free one-pot three component methodology for the synthesis of α-aminonitriles under ultrasonic irradiation at room temperature using [Bmim]Br as a neutral reaction medium is described. A broad range of substrates including the aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic aldehydes were condensed with amines (aliphatic and aromatic) and trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN). Using this method, all...
